Vado incontro al fato estremo
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Available translation(s): ENG
Vado incontro al fato estremo, crudo ciel, sorte spietata; ma frattanto un'alma ingrata l'ombra mia precederà. Vuo', che almeno altrui non giovi il rigor della mia stella; vuo', che alfin crudel mi trovi chi sprezzò la mia pietà.
