My Song, I do believe that there are few
Who will thy reasoning rightly understand,
To them so hard and dark is thy discourse.
Hence, peradventure, if it come to pass
That thou shouldst find thyself with persons who
Appear unskilled to comprehend thee well,
I pray thee, then, my young and well-beloved,
Be not discomforted; but say to them,
"Take note, at least, how beautiful I am!"
DANTE, from the "Banquet."
Art thou not beautiful, my new-born Song?
Then thou art piteous, and shalt go thy way.
