Entra in questi occhi lassi
Deh RIPOSO del Ciel, ch'indi sovente
Per quei nel cor mi passi,
Che per men doglia di morir consente.
Ivi'l gran foco ardente,
E le pene, e gli strazii rivedrai
Di stige dolorosa,
Ivi o dolce mia POSA
Ivi o sommo desir vientene omai.
Hore tranquille altr'io non hebbi mai.

Giovanni Battista Strozzi, Madrigali(1593), p.56

(RIPOSO= "rest"; POSA="unrest")
