I think some enemy
is envious of me.

:13:06
Jealous, maybe.
:13:09
Read it.
:13:11
Read it.
:13:15
I know I'll only wonder
at your wit.

:13:21
"To love because we see
another love is but envy.

:13:24
If we say we're jealous
but not in love...

:13:27
...Iove's theorists disprove.
:13:29
Such love's impossible,
they say.

:13:33
My love, though,
springs from jealousy.

:13:35
Distressed, although I know
I'm handsomer...

:13:38
...I see another seems more
blessed in having won a love.

:13:42
I let "I dare not"
wait upon "I would"...

:13:45
...don't love, but feel
a jealousy intense...

:13:48
...know, since I would be loved,
that love I should.

:13:52
Yet neither yield,
nor offer a defence.

:13:55
Thus what I mean I show,
but do not show.

:13:57
Let he who can,
say what I mean.

:14:00
I know."
:14:03
What do you think?
:14:04
That if it fits the case,
I've not seen better.

:14:09
Yet I can't imagine how jealousy
could ever engender love.

:14:13
Love always was its father.
:14:15
I suspect the lady found
the man in question pleasing...

:14:19
...but not desirable.
:14:22
But when she saw him
court another...

:14:25
...she was roused by jealousy
to love him.

:14:28
Could that be?
:14:30
It could, my lady.
:14:31
Yet such jealousy must
still have had a source...

:14:34
...and that was love.
:14:36
Causes produce effects,
and not vice versa.

:14:39
I couldn't say, Teodoro. I think
that's how it was with her.

:14:42
She told me she'd merely been
attracted by that man...

:14:46
...but when she saw him loved...
:14:48
...a horde of hot desires
beset the road to honour...

:14:51
...and stripped her soul
of virtuous intentions.

:14:54
Your note is finely phrased.
I dare not match it.

:14:58
Go in and try.
:14:59
I dare not.
