Original text and translations

Italian text Occhi, piangete, accompagnat’il core Che di vostro fallir morte sostiene Così sempre facciamo et ne conviene Lamentar più l’altrui ch’el nostr’errore. Canzoniere 84 (1st 4 lines)

English translation Weep, eyes: accompany the heart that is about to die for your failings. 'So we are, always weeping: we must mourn for another's fault rather than our own.' Translation by Anthony S. Kline ©
