Reis Glorios "religious" ?
Well, it invokes God but it's all about a couple of lovers so that I wouldn't call it "religious", but I will abstain from editing it. Runlevel0 14:20, 23 January 2014 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Runlevel0 (talk • contribs)
 * It is sometimes considered a religious alba, sometimes an erotic one. I think the religious interpretation makes more sense and is more common. See Gale Sigal's analysis in Erotic Dawn-songs of the Middle Ages, pp. 153–55. Srnec (talk) 02:58, 24 January 2014 (UTC)

18 or 19?
I have checked with http://www.bedt.it/BEdT_04_25/index.aspx —the online Bibliografia Elettronica dei Trovatori—and it lists eighteen, all of ours except that of Berenguer d'Anoia. In fact, it has no entry at all for Berenguer, which I assume means it considers him a late Occitan poet and not a true troubadour. I have thus commented him out for now.

 * Sorry for reverting your edit, but when I checked this comment had not yet been added. I shall remove the query.—Jerome Kohl (talk) 02:10, 22 October 2016 (UTC)
