    Chapter Three: Chivalry

    The rules of courtly love, according to Andreus Capellanus: Marriage is no real excuse for not loving He who is not jealous cannot love No one can be bound by a double love It is well known that love is always increasing or decreasing That which a lover takes against the will of his beloved has no relish Boys do not love until they arrive at the age of maturity When one lover dies, a widowhood of two years is required of the survivor No one should be deprived of love without the very best of reasons No one can love unless he is impelled by the persuasion of love Love is always a stranger in the home of avarice It is not proper to love any woman whom one would be ashamed to seek to marry A true lover does not desire to embrace in love anyone except his beloved When made public love rarely endures The easy attainment of love makes it of little value; difficulty of attainment makes it prized Every lover regularly turns pale in the presence of his beloved When a lover suddenly catches sight of his beloved, his heart palpitates A new love puts to flight an old one Good character alone makes any man worthy of love If love diminishes, it quickly fails and rarely revives A man in love is always apprehensive Real jealousy always increases the feeling of love Jealousy, and therefore love, are increased when one suspects his beloved He whom the thought of love vexes eats and sleeps very little Every act of a lover ends in the thought of his beloved A true lover considers nothing good except what he thinks will please his beloved Love can deny nothing to love A lover can never have enough of the solaces of his beloved A slight presumption causes a lover to suspect his beloved A man who is vexed by too much passion usually does not love A true lover is constantly and without intermission possessed by the thought of his beloved Nothing forbids one woman being loved by two men or one man by two women   Music thanks to Verbum Gloriae https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOY2Hj4AbsnEfaQDvxQvnAg "Exultemus et laetemus" - Responsorial chant for Paschaltide.
