A che Donna portar cosa nel seno,
Ch'in ben composti e pargoletti giri,
I gran passi del ciel mostr'e misuri,
Se nel bel volto a pieno,
Tu di te stessa innamorata miri,
Ruote celesti e lumi ardenti e puri,
Nell'ostro d'un bianchissimo sereno,
Ond'à gara del sol segni fra noi,
La meta e'l corso de la vita altrui.
