Camões

Excerpt from Cam�es: Poema

A ac��o do poema � a composi��o, e publi ca��o dos Lus�adas os outros successes, que escorrem, s�o de facto episodicos, mas fiz por os ligar com a principal accao. Tam sabida � a fabula, ou enr�do dos Lus�adas, e a vida de seu auctor, que Beni, tenho mais explica��es que fazer a este respeito nem ser� di�cil ao leitor o distinguir, no meu op�sculo, ohistorico do imaginado: mas n�o separara de certo muita cousa, porque das mesmas lic��es, que intro duzi, tem sua base verdadeira as mais dellas.
