Description: The text is from Il Pastor fido (Guarini):Atto quarto; scena nona, lines 149-180. In the madrigal here presented a number of lines have been omitted from the Guarini text: lines 169-178.

(Dorinda)
Ferir quel petto, Silvio?
Non bisognava agli occhi miei scovrirlo,
s'avevi pur desio ch'io tel ferissi.
O bellissimo scoglio,
già da l'onda e dal vento
de le lagrime mie, de miei sospiri
sí spesso invan percosso,
è pur ver che tu spiri
e che senti pietate? O pur m'inganno?
Ma sii tu pure o petto molle o marmo:
già non vo' che m'inganni
d'un candido alabastro il bel sembiante,
come quel d'una fèra
oggi ingannato ha il tuo signore e mio.
Ferir io te? Te pur ferisca Amore,
ché vendetta maggiore
non so bramar che di vederti amante.
Sia benedetto il dí che da prim' arsi!
benedette le lagrime e i sospiri!
Di voi lodar, non vendicar, mi voglio.
in te vivrà il cor mio,
né, pur che vivi tu, morir poss' io.
