"Ben venga la mia nimph'
Ben venga il pastor
anz' il mio sole",
dicea sul vago lit' al fin del giorno,
con soavi parole Lidia ambi pieni di desio,
vola van d'ogn'intorni Lieti
scherzand' i pargolett' amori,
e in su le labbia lor s'uniro 'i cori.
Adio Lidia mia bella,
Caro mio Meri adio,
poi ch'el ciel vole
Dicea scura arn' al Apparir del sole
Pastor afflitto, aflitta pastorella,
Piangev' el, piangev' ella
Piangea con essi amore
E quinc'e quindi si divis' il core.
