Line Information

• Differences among the manuscripts and editions:
• English translations (Windeatt: 1998): See! He who considered himself so knowledgeable, who scorned those who suffer the pains of love, was quite unaware that Love dwelt within the ethereal beams of her eyes, so that it suddenly seemed to him that, just with her look, he felt the vital spirit in his heart die. Blessed be Love, that can convert people like this!
• Japanese translations (Sasamoto: 2012): ほら、自分自身は大変賢いと思い、＜愛の神＞の責め苦に耐える人びとを軽蔑した彼だったが、クリセイデの目の霊妙な輝きの中に、＜愛の神＞が宿っているのを気づかなかった。彼女を一目見た瞬間、彼は突然死にそうに感じ、心臓の命の原動力がなくなりそうに思えた。このように人を変えられる＜愛の神＞に祝福あれ！
• Chinese translations (Fang: 1956): 咯，自作聪明的人，唾骂旁人不应该枉受爱神的摧残，全未警觉到爱神就在她那妖迷的眼光中居住；这眼光一闪，可使他顿觉心魂消失；祝福爱神，你的威力煞是惊人！
