Explore "Amor, Io Fallo E Veggio Il Mio Fallire" by Francesco Petrarca on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
HE PRAYS LOVE, WHO IS THE CAUSE OF HIS OFFENCES, TO OBTAIN PARDON FOR / HIM.
O Love, I err, and I mine error own, / As one who burns, whose fire within him lies / And aggravates his grief, while reason dies, / With its own martyrdom almost o'erthrown.
