Summary
Ch’agli nemici gli uomini sien crudi
In ogni età sen’ è veduto esempio;
Ma dar la morte a chi procuri e studi
Il tuo ben sempre, è troppo ingiusto ed empio;
E acciò che meglio il vero io ti dinudi,
Perchè costor volesser fare scempio
Degli anni verdi miei contra ragione,—
Ti diro da principio ogni cagione.
ORLANDO FURIOSO. Canto VThe truth you speak doth lack some gentleness
And time to speak it in; you rub the sore
When you should find the plaster.
