Giunto a la tomba ov' al suo spirto vivo
Dolorosa prigion il ciel prescrisse,
Di color, di calor, di moto privo
Già freddo marmo al marmo il volto affisse.
Al fin sgorgando un lagrimoso rivo,
In un languido oimè proruppe, e disse:
O sasso amato tanto, amaro tanto,
Che dentr' hai le mie fiamme e fuori il pianto.

the sorrowful prison of her ardent spirit,
his face deprived of color, warmth and movement,
already of cold marble, he gazed on its marble.
At last, giving forth a stream of tears,
he uttered afaint "alas" and said;
"O stone most beloved, most bitter, that
holds within my flames and without my weeping;
