Poor kind unwise Violante, since it seems

They must not be my parents any more.

That is why something put it in my head

To call the boy "Gaetano"—no old name

For sorrow's sake; I looked up to the sky

And took a new saint to begin anew.

One who has only been made saint—how long?

Twenty-five years: so, carefuller, perhaps,

To guard a namesake than those old saints grow,

Tired out by this time,—see my own five saints!
