Original text and translations
Italian textDel auro crin de la Tassinia bella 1 Originally "quadrelle": but fitting the rhyme and also the logic is “quadrella“, pl. of quadrello = arrow, whereas quadrelle = pl. of quadrella would mean files or rasps. |
German translationAus den güldenen Flechten der schönen Tassinia
