GIUNIA

Parto, m'affretto.
Ma nel partire
Il cor si apezza.
Mi manca l'anima,

Morir mi sento. Né so morire,

E smanio, e gelo. E piango, e peno.

Ah se potessi, potessi almeno

Fra tanti spasimi, morir così.
 

Ma per maggior mio duolo

Verso un' amante appressa

Divien la morte istessa

Pietosa in questo dì.
