Description: According to the composer's name in the book, the madrigal is composed by D. Agostino Agostini.
It is obvious to assume that this further unknown composer must be a relative of Lodovico.
To preserve the integrity of the book I will list this madrigal on Lodovico's page.

Italian text
Deh, Salvator de l'anime smarite,
Ch'i spessi e caldi preghi,
Pietoso ascolti et gratia mai non nieghi,
Hor con pietade ascolta,
Ch'io contrito e dolente
e vergognoso ogni mio error confesso
e ben conosco io stesso,
Che l'alma mia in tanti falli avolta,
Salvar mai non si puo se non si pente,
Onde pentita e'n la tua fede accesa,
Prega che gli cancelli ogni tua offesa.
