Explore "Stanci Gia DI Mirar, Non Sazio Ancora" by Francesco Petrarca on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Wearied, not satisfied, with much delight, / Now here, now there, I turn'd my greedy sight, / And many things I view'd: to write were long, / The time is short, great store of passions throng / Within my breast; when lo, a lovely pair, / Join'd hand in hand, who kindly talking were, / Drew my attention that way: their attire / And foreign language quicken'd my desire / Of further knowledge, which I soon might gain.
My kind interpreter did all explain.
