Planh
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The planh or plaing is a funeral lament used by the troubadours, modeled on the medieval Latin planctus. It differed from the planctus in that it was intended for a secular audience. Alfred Jeanroy notived three different types: those dedicated to grandes personnages (great patrons), those to family and friends, and those to ladies and lovers.
