Italian text

E quella certa speme e quella fede
di cui l’alma si fa bella e celeste l’accompagnia d’ogn’ or
sin ch’ella il piede sciolga da lacci dell’ umana veste.
E quell’ amor che nell’ eterna sede la segue ancor,
non si rivolga a queste vili beltà,
ma in te s’accenda ogn’ ora
che d’Apostoli sei, Donna e Signora.
