AUSIAS MARCH (1397 - 1459)

Just like he who sees himself near death,

going through hardships, through perils at sea,

and sees a place where he can find his ease

and cannot reach it for his evil luck;

like him I pass through these hard times

and see you, who might cure all my ills:

and now despaired of achieving my desires,

I'll circle the world, telling of your pride.
