In all the world, in all the lands the sun warms and the sea surrounds, there's no sight lovelier than her. I yielded her to someone else, a baron who was named Prasild. The span of time, the many trials that I endured in distant lands have lessened the despairs of love that scorched me to my very bones. A lady governs this domain, a sorceress named Faleriina, because its ruler, Poliferrno, has joined with Agrrican to win the daughter of King Galafron, the beautiful Angelica. This damsel who controls the realm is practised in deceit and fraud.
None pass inside, unless on wings.
Where the sun rises, in the east, that stone wall's broken by a door. Now, in this region, as I said, I was deceived and put in chains. I spent four months inside a prison teeming with cavaliers and women. I can't tell you how sad it was to see ourselves in such distress. Each day, the dragon ate a pair of us, as destiny arranged.
