Thank you very much for all the replies that have helped me identify the poem
by Umberto Saba, "A mia moglie"! I am amazed by the level of responsiveness of
this list, especially when someone is looking for help or advice.

De todos instrumentos yo, libro, só pariente:
bien o mal, qual puntares, tal te dirá ciertamente.
Qual tú dezir quisieres, ´y faz punto, ´y, ten te;
si me puntar sopieres, sienpre me avrás en miente.
