Transcription

All goes, and all remains, but our task is to go, to go creating roads roads through the sea. My songs never chased after glory to remain in human memory. I love the subtle worlds weightless and charming, worlds like soap-bubbles. I like to see them, daubed with sunlight and scarlet, quiver, under a blue sky, suddenly and burst… I never chased glory. ♫ Music ♫ Traveller, the road is only your footprint, and nothing more; traveller, there’s no road, the road is your travelling. Going becomes the road and if you look back you will see a path none can tread again. Traveller, every track leaves its wake on the sea… Once in this place where bushes now have thorns the sound of a poet's cry was heard 'Traveller there’s no road the road is your travelling…' Stroke by stroke, verse by verse... The poet died far from home. Shrouded by dust of a neighbouring land. At his parting they heard him cry: 'Traveller there’s no road the road is your travelling…' Stroke by stroke, verse by verse... When the goldfinch can’t sing, when the poet’s a wanderer, when nothing aids our prayer. 'Traveller there’s no road the road is your travelling…' Stroke by stroke, verse by verse. Stroke by stroke, verse by verse. Stroke by stroke, verse by verse.

Life

Born in Carrión de los Condes, the name Manuel was given to him to commemorate his maternal grandmother's roots in Imperial Byzantium. He was granted the Seigneury of Villena in 1252, created for him to govern that lordship as "apanage" (a medieval micro-state that would return to the central crown if the minor lineage ends with no successor). This lordship would grow by receiving the cities around the Vinalopó River (Elda valley, Aspe, Crevillente, Elche). He also received the Adelantamiento of the Kingdom of Murcia.

Manuel travelled to Italy in 1259 as part of the embassy sent by his father to Pope Alexander IV. Later, when his brother became king Alfonso X the Wise, served him as Alférez and Majordomo of the king.

He died at Peñafiel in 1283 and was buried in the Monastery of Uclés. His son Juan Manuel, who succeeded him in Villena and Peñafiel among the others, and became prince of Villena, was a notable medieval writer.

Manuel of Castile, as son of Ferdinand III of Castile, belonged to the royal House of Burgundy of Castile and León, but he was also the first of a new family branch, the House of Manuel of Villena.
