Alma d'Amor gioiosa hor che sospiri,
 Per soverchio diletto,
Dunque il piacer d'amor recca martiri,
 Si dov' ha tropp' affetto,
 Ma chi pon fren' a suoi maggior desiri,
 Sperar mende l'obietto,
 Et s'huom la spem' adempie ond' i sospiri,
 Da continuo sospetto,
 O nuov' e stran' effetto,
Fals' amorosa voglia,
 Se dal suo maggior ben nasce la doglia.
