Introduction
DGR's source text is Poeti del Primo Secolo (I. 247-249), where the attribution to Giacomino is firm. But Panvini lists the poem among the Sicilian works of dubious authorship.
The translation is at various points very free, partly no doubt because the text DGR worked from is a poor and difficult one. But parts of the translation are exceedingly fine, especially the last two stanzas.
Not much more is known about Giacomino Pugliesi than DGR indicates in his note on the poet given in The Early Italian Poets. Giacomino was one of the court poets of Frederick II.
Textual History: Composition
