That object encapsulates the returned data, the named columns and whether or not the result was truncated.

    return Results(rows, truncated, cursor.description)

The `rows` argument comes from either `rows = cursor.fetchmany(max_returned_rows + 1)` or `rows = cursor.fetchall()`. It's a Python list of `sqlite3.Row` objects.

Here's the current class implementation:
