by Giuseppe Palomba (flourished 1769-1825)
Presto, dico
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Presto, dico, avanti, avanti, che vo' tutto ormai comprar. Le galanti più brillanti voglio io sempre superar. Sì, son volubile, son capricciosa, le mode nobili solo mi piacciono, vo' sempre spendere per ben goder. Viva l'amore, viva il bel tempo, viva la moda, viva il piacer.
