Rodelinda A tanta sorte per la gioia dovria mancarmi il core; e pure, Unulfo, io sento -
Unulfo Importuno timore invidia al tuo bel sen -
Rodelinda Deh! Non tardare a miei sguardi il contento, ed al cor mio; venga a me Bertarido!
Unulfo Or tel'invio.
English Libretto or Translation:
Scene VI A gallery in Rodelindas apartment Rodelinda and Unulfo
Rodelinda My spouse still living, say you?
Unulfo Living, my Queen, and longing to embrace you!
Rodelinda At such a sudden turn, joy springs too fast, my heart might fail me out of to much transport, yet, ah, I know not, but it sinks with fear.
Unulfo Fears, at this time, are most importunate, and out of envy to the blessings there, crowd to disturb your breast, and damp your joys.
Rodelinda Pray you, with all the haste imaginable, let me my Lord Bertarido behold, dear to my eyes as light – and to my heart dear as the vital drops that flow within it.
Unulfo He shall, with all dispatch, be safe conducted.
