Italian text

Così nel mio parlar voglio esser aspro,
Com’ è ne gli atti questa bella pietra,
La qual' ogn' hor impetra,
Maggior durezza e più natura cruda,
E veste sua persona d’un diaspro
Tal, che per lui, e perch’ ella s’arretra,
Non esce di faretra
Saetta, che già mai la colga ignuda:

Et ella ancide, e non val c'huom si chiuda,
Né si dilunghi da i colpi mortali,
Che, come havesser ali,
Giungono altrui e spezzan ciascun’ arme,
Perch’io non sò da lei né posso aitarme.

English translation

Severe shall be my speech, as in her deeds
is she, the rock so beautiful and cold,
who every hour acquires
more hardness and a nature more unkind:
and clothes her person, too, in adamant,
so that by strength of armour, or retreat,
no quiver sends a dart
can ever reach a part of her exposed;

and she still wounds; nor space nor coat of mail
which fly as they had wings,
and him o'ertake, and all his armour rend;
whence skill or might avails me not 'gainst her.

Translation by Charles Lyell (1845)
