Qüestions d'amor: De majoritat e amor
The Friend's Questions on Love
The Friend asks two questions: first about the nature of greater love, and then, after a section marker, about finding rest in loving.
Equal honors of love asked the Friend if he knew of what greater love is.1 II.2 Sighing and weeping asked the Friend whether he found rest in loving.
Read the original Catalan
Eguals honramens damor demanaren al amic, si sabia de que es major amor.
ij. Suspirar e plorar demanaren a lamic, si atrobava repòs en amar.
Notes
- 1 ↩Old Catalan 'de que es major amor' read as 'de què és major amor' (of what greater love is / in respect of what love is greater), fitting the chapter on majoritat and love; not taken as a choice between two loves.
- 2 ↩Source 'ij.' is a medieval numeral form of 'ii', marking the second item in the chapter’s sequence of love-questions; rendered as a structural heading, not prose.
