to hide love. No one seeks to find out things that are manifestly true. But almost by nature, everyone desires to investigate what is hidden. Nor is it beneficial to question every little thing in itself; because small impediments have little effect on great endeavors. And even if there is some reason to suspect one should never appear to be suspicious because your suspicion will teach others to suspect. Suspicion has always been an indicator of ill will; to show love sweetly and fittingly has never been harmful or displeasing. But to demonstrate oneself to be overcome by too much love has always been damaging, not so much with respect to other people
