Third stanza:
Rotava, et e pur ver, di puro foco,
il volto amor nell'uno e l'altro sole;
da sirena di dio sciolse la voce,
mass' il passo da dea per quella riva,
risa al suo riso l'aria, e uscir dell'herbe,
fiati e sospiri in più tranquillo stato.

Third stanza:
She turned, and, this is true, with purest fire
her loving face shone on both riverbanks;
like a divine siren she lifted her voice,
and moved with godlike steps on yonder bank,
the air laughed to her laugh, and from the grass
a breath and sigh came, in most tranquil state.
