Supposing that it was a dream,
Clotaldo! Here is what I deem
Ocurred, and not just in my mind:
I waked yesterday to find
Myself -this taunts me!- lounging in
A bed so bright it might have been
The flowery cot by which the Spring
Adorns the earth with coloring
From all the hues contained therein.
A thousand nobles bowed before
My vaunted feet and, once they’d hailed
Me as their prince, I was regaled
With banquets, jewels, robes, and more.
You purged what calm my senses bore
By naming me, to my delight,
King Basil’s heir by natural right
And though my fortune’s fallen since,
I briefly reigned as Poland’s prince.
