Vignette- Infamous
Violence was his game
Tancred,prince of Salerno ,by name
Killed his daughter's true love
Delivered the heart to her abode
Infamy remembered in song,play and ode
Note: Tancred(1078-1152) killed Guiscardo,his daughter's lover and cut his heart out and
sent it to her,she then took poison.Tancred buried them together
