Selected extracts
His Life is by Contraries (translation of verse starting "Per lunga dimoranza").
Madonna, vostra altera canoscenza, E l'onorato bene, Che 'n voi convene tutto in piacimento, Mise in voi servir sì la mia intenza, Che cura mai non tene, Nè pur sovvene d'altro pensamento, E lo talento di ciò m'è lumera. Così piacer mi trasse in voi, compita, D'ogni valor gradita, Di beltate e di gioia miradore, Dove tuttore prendendo mainera L'altre valente donne di lor vita; Perciò non ho partita Voglia da intenza di star servidore. (first stanza as printed on page 5 of Poeti del primo secolo della lingua italianna in due volumi raccolti by Lodovico Valeriani and Urbano Lampredi, 1816)
