SCENA XII Ottone. Ottone amante disperato imperversa con l'animo contro Poppea
OTTONE Otton, torna in te stesso, Il più imperfetto sesso Non ha per sua natura Altro d'uman in sé che la figura. Otton, torna in te stesso, Costei pensa al comando, e se ci arriva La mia vita è perduta,... Otton, torna in te stesso,...ella temendo Che risappia Nerone I miei passati amori, Ordirà insidie all'innocenza mia, Indurrà colla forza un che m'accusi Di lesa maestà di fellonia, La calunnia, da' grandi favorita, Distrugge agl'innocenti onor e vita. Vo' prevenir costei Col ferro o col veleno, Non mi vo' più nutrir il serpe in seno. A questo fine Dunque arrivar dovea L'amor tuo, perfidissima Poppea!
English Libretto or Translation:
SCENE XII Ottone. Desperate lover's Ottone is raging with the soul against Poppea
OTTONE Otton, come back to yourself, The most imperfect sex It does not have by its nature Other of human in itself than the figure. Otton, come back to yourself, She thinks about the command, and if she gets there My life is lost, ... Otton, come back to yourself, ... fearful That resurrects Nero My past loves, He will order threats to my innocence, He will force a man to accuse me Of lese majà of felony, The slander, from 'big favorite, It destroys the innocent honor and life. I will prevent her With iron or with poison, I will no longer feed the snake in my bosom. For this purpose So come dovea Your love, very treacherous Poppea!
