Notes for Raymond BERENGER , Count of Provence

"Berenger was the last and most illustrious of the Royal Provençal Counts; and, even had he not been the sovereign of the land of song, his own verses would have entitled him to a distinguished rank among the Troubadour poets. He was a relatively impoverished count who could provide little dowry for his daughters."¹⁴⁹
