Translation: Look on me! if canst read the signs of love,
Thou’lt see that death is written in my face.

Risguardiami; se sa legger d’amore,
Ch’ io porto morte scritta nella faccia.

A buon servente guiderdon non pere.

Translation: Though the sun beat all day upon the mud,
Still foul the mud remains and bright the sun.
