Quando col dolce suono
S'accordon le dolcissime parole
Ch'escon fra bianche perle e bei rubini
Maravigliando dico hor come sono
Venuti in ciel che si d'appresso il sol rimiro
Ed odo accenti alti e divini
O spirti pellegrini
S'udeste Pulisena,
Direste ben d'udir doppia sirena,
Io che veduta l'ho vi giuro ch'ella
È più che'l sol assai lucente e bella.
