It will be my favourite. By far if it appears. As you were looking for another poem that's recent, I'm sending you one by chance, unpublished..." "It's on purpose that I didn't send you a small booklet, which I'm sure you're sensitive to the fact that you would find yourself evil, which in fact is beneficial, but only for those who in this world have found much to hate, never stop hating no matter what they do. It's not for you. You'd feel hurt by an evil hand, an evil eye, the exact opposite of what I would want." "I'm jealous of you, dear friend, it's the lightning in your house that's overwhelming your energy, in mine it's just a foot, which left me humiliated, dragging my steps, my life even more." "Forgive the bad horse that misses the races, and yet you want to run even in your homeland. Thank you for copying these beautiful verses from Biene de Siena. But he has charity with him."
