Recitado

Ya que el aplauso soy más eloquente,
elevo justamente
del inclito Tomás las altas glorias,
en eternas memorias.
Soy quien immortalizo
cuando fiel solemnizo;
con que en su obsequio por diversos modos
mi fineza encarezco más que todos.

Aria

¿Quién ha de poder sondar el profundo y vasto mar de tu mérito y valor? Si en lo heroico de tu ser, tuvo el cielo que admirar, en tu angélico candor.

Recitative

Since my own words are more eloquent than any applause, I raise into everlasting memory the great glories of the illustrious Thomas. I am the one who can immortalize when I faithfully celebrate; and so my eulogy, more than anyone else's, extols his renown in every way.

Aria

Who can fathom the deep and vast sea of your worth and bravery? Did Heaven too admire your heroism and your angelic candour?
