I'm not great at php, so struggling with this. Wondering if there's a way to grab the page title of a non-current page?

I have hacked the Power Slider block to display text associated with an image, but the text itself links to a particular page. So in my view.php I have this:
[code] <?php foreach($images as $imgInfo) {

$f = File::getByID($imgInfo['fID']);

$fp = new Permissions($f);

$page = Page::getByID($imgInfo['pageID']);

$theLink = $nav->getLinkToCollection($page);

?>



<div class="powerSlide">

<img src="<?php echo $f->getRelativePath()?>">

<?php if ($imgInfo['powerSlidePhraseTitle'] !== "" ){ ?>

<span class="largeText"><?php echo $imgInfo['powerSlidePhraseTitle']?></span>

<?php }

if ($imgInfo['powerSlidePhraseDesc'] !== "" ){?>

<span class="smallText"><?php echo $imgInfo['powerSlidePhraseDesc']?></span>

<?php } ?>

<div class="linkText">
<div class="border">
<a class="portfolioLink" href="<?php echo $theLink ?>">view "xxxx" portfolio ></a>
</div>
</div>

</div>[\code]
Where it says view "xxxx" portfolio, I want it to show the page title of the page that $theLink is linking to.
I know I need to declare a variable to grab the page title, and then echo that variable instead of the "xxxx", but unsure at this point as to how to get the page title itself.
