Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:
Tolomeo
Bella, placa lo sdegno!
Cornelia
Lasciami, iniquo re!
Achilla
Sire, qua mi portai,
per ammollir questa crudel, che adoro.
Tolomeo
Fu pietosa a' tuoi detti?
Achilla
Ella mi sprezza ognor, ed io mi moro.
Tolomeo
(da se'):
(Respiro, oh ciel!)
Bella, lo sdegno ammorza! (tira da parte Achilla) Amico, e ben?
Achilla
Signor, oggi vedrai
Cesare estinto al suolo,
re vendicato, e regnator tu solo.
Tolomeo
Parti, eseguisci, e spera; avrai in mercede la tua crudel.
(da se'):
(Folle è costui se'l crede).
English Libretto or Translation:
Tolomeo
Beautiful, appease the anger!
Cornelia
Leave me, iniquitous king!
Achilla
Sire, here I took
to soothe this cruel, which I adore.
Tolomeo
Was it pious to your sayings?
Achilla
She despises me all, and I die.
Tolomeo
(by himself'):
(Breath, oh heaven!)
Bella, the indignation is strong! (pulls Achilla aside) Friend, and well?
Achilla
Sir, today you will see
Caesar extinct to the ground,
King avenged, and you alone regnator.
Tolomeo
Parts, perform, and hope; you will pay your cruel.
(by himself'):
(Folle is he if he believes).
