Line Information

  • Differences among the manuscripts and editions:
  • English translations (Windeatt: 1998): With this he took his leave and went home and Lord, he was glad and in high good humour! Criseyde got up; she delayed no longer but went directly into her own room and sat herself down, still as a stone, to turn over and over every word he had said, as it came back to her mind,
  • Japanese translations (Sasamoto: 2012): これを聞くとパンダルスはいとまごいをして、帰っていた。ああ、パンダルスはなんと喜び幸せに思ったことか。クリセイデは立ち上がり、もはや立ち止まることなく、まっすぐ私室に入って行った。そして石のようにじっと座り込んで、叔父が言った言葉を一つ一つ思い出しながら、あれこれ思いを巡らした。
  • Chinese translations (Fang: 1956): 他于是告辞回去;天哪,他是何等高兴,何等满意!克丽西德站了起来,立即走进里面小房间,坐下不动,像石头一样,他所讲过的一字一句都回到她脑中盘旋;

Comments from the Editor

Although Pandarus’s words revolve in Criseyde’s heart, the narrator does not mention whether she is in a joyful mood or whether she also speaks to herself as Criseida in Fil did.
