La dolce vist’a me si dolcemente
Al suo prim’aparir mi trass’il core
Del petto ch’el pensier subitamente
Lasciand’ogn’altra cura e sol d’amore
M’empi si l’alma ch’altro piu (piacer) non sento
Onde se (si) ben languisc’a tutte l’hore
Morendo mille volt’il di per lei
Dolci mi saran sempr’i dolor miei.
