Petrarch:

F. Say what you want, as long as you don't accuse me of envy.

A. If only pride had harmed you as much as envy! Indeed, I judge that you're free from this guilt.

Also Petrarch:

I am she whom in our Africa you have described with curious elegance; I am she for whom, not unlike the Theban Amphion, with admirable artifice and, literally, with hands of poet, you have erected in the far West and on the Highest summit of the Atlas a refulgent and beautiful palace.
