Sento l'aura soave, e i dolci colli
veggio apparire, onde 'l bel lume nacque
che tenne gli occhi mei mentr'al ciel piacque
bramosi et lieti, or li tèn tristi et molli.

O caduche speranze, o penser' folli!
Vedove l'erbe et torbide son l'acque,
et vòto et freddo 'l nido in ch'ella giacque,
nel qual io vivo, et morto giacer volli.
