Introduction

Panuccio dal Bagno (ca. 1230-1276) was from a wealthy Pisan family of merchants. The influence of Guitonne d'Arezzo on his verse is very clear in the controlled and highly moralized style of this canzone. The source text for the poem was not Poeti del primo secolo but the text in Raccolta di rime antiche toscane (I. 480-482).
