Additional quotes by Francesco Berni

Tal l'aspro saettare, e tanto dura,
Che per l'ombra de' dardi il ciel s'oscura.

Un re, se vuole il suo debito fare,
Non e re veramente, ma fattore
Del popol che gli e dato a governare.

Cursed be he who e'er has put his trust
Or who henceforth shall trust in woman's heart;
False are they all, and to mankind a curse;
The plain are bad enough, the fair are worse.
