Note 5 — Chapter CXVII

C. H. (Charles Henry) Tawney translation

When the princess’s attendant said this to her, she answered her, “My friend, though I know all this, what am I to do? My heart cannot endure to remain for a moment without that lord of my life, to whom it is devoted, and Cupid will not bear to be trifled with any further. For when I think of him, my mind is immediately refreshed,5 but my limbs burn, and my breath seems to leave my body with glowing heat.”
