Line Information
- Differences among the manuscripts and editions:
- English translations (Windeatt: 1998): My fair lady, Criseyde, has betrayed me, in whom I trusted most of anyone. Her heart has now found its fulfilment elsewhere. Through their great power, the blessed gods have shown it very exactly in my dream. In my dream I’ve seen Criseyde like this,’ and he told Pandarus the whole thing.
- Japanese translations (Sasamoto: 2012): 誰よりも信頼していたクリセイデはおれとの美しい恋を裏切った。あの人は今では他所でその心を満たしている。恵み深い神々は、御力によって、おれの夢の中でそれをはっきり見せてくださった。夢の中でこのようにしているクリセイデを見たのだ。」それから彼は一部始終をパンダルスに語った。
- Chinese translations (Fang: 1956): 我所最信任的克丽西德已经负了我的心，她向旁人求欢了；幸福之神已显出威力，托梦给我，指示得真切。我梦见克丽西德如此如此—”他一一讲给他听。
