Line Information
- Differences among the manuscripts and editions:
- English translations (Windeatt: 1998): This incident was so touching to hear, and so like the truth too, on the face of it … and Troilus, her knight, so dear to her … his secret coming, and the secure place … that, all things considered, it is no wonder that she then granted him a favour, since she did everything for the best.
- Japanese translations (Sasamoto: 2012): この出来事は、聞くと大変気の毒だった。そしてまた一見するとまことしやかに見え、彼女の騎士トロイルスは彼女にとって大変大事な人であり、彼が人目を忍んで来てくれるし、ここは安全な場所であるしで、このまますべての事を考慮すると、彼女がこの時トロイルスに好意を尽くしたとしても、無理からぬことだ、彼女はすべて良かれと思ってしたからだ。
- Chinese translations (Fang: 1956): 这情节她听来好生伤感，骤然之间也觉得确有其事，特罗勒斯既是她心头的人，加之他又来得秘密，那地点又安全，她何妨就宽厚一下，反正对良心上她也没有什么过意不去。

Comments from the Editor
After Pandarus’s persuasion, Criseyde now seems to have compromised. See also my comments of ‘along’ (adj., Tr3.783), ‘amis’ (pred. adj., Tr3.841) and ‘dere’ (adj., Tr3.494).
