Pasce la pecorella i verdi campi
e sent' il suo monton cozzar vicino.
Ondeggi e par ch'in mezzo l'acqu' avampi
con la su' amata il veloce Delphino

per tutt' ove'l terren d'ombra si stampi
sostien due rondinelle un faggio, un pino,
e voi pur piac' in disusate tempre
viver solingh' e scompagnante sempre.
