Se spento esser potesse,
L'ardore ond' io son lasso a morte spinto,
Gia'l mar del pianto mio l'havrebbe estinto,
S'asciugar si potesse,
L'humido ond' ho nel cor mortale effetto,
Gia l'havria asciutt' il mongibel del petto,
Ahi ch'amor vuol ch'io viva,
Tra si contrarie tempre,
Perche donna crudel si veggia sempre,
Che da voi sola il suo poter deriva.
