Sospiro, è vero, ma se vuoi saper perchè risponder non saprò, Dirò che per pietà, ma se mi chiederai tanta pietà perchè, ancor sospirerò.
Floridante

Ma un dolce mio pensiero
Ma un dolce mio pensiero, pensier d’amante cor, pur sento, che mi dice che rendermi felice la sorte un dì saprà. Pensiero lusinghiero, no, non esser mentitor! E’ persa ogni speranza, se nel tuo dolce vero l’mia più cara pace asilo non avrà.

Tarde abbastanza non ancor son l’ore: pur molto è scorso della notte, e forse dalla secreta stanza or parte, or scende quella furtiva scala... a piè di quella or s’arresta, a guardingo pone fuor della soglia il guardo solo, solitario si vede; ecco s’avanza, al vestibulo or giunge della mia prima stanza. La porta è sol socchiusa... odo rumore, apri entra vieni ah no! m’inganna amore; oh quanto è l’aspettar colmo di pene! Notte cara, deh! Riportami’l mio ben!
