Vezzosi augelli infra le verdi fronde
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Vezzosi augelli infra le verdi fronde Temprano a prova lascivette note Mormora l'aura, e fa le foglie e l'onde Garrir, che variamente ella percote Quando taccion gli augelli, alto risponde; Quando cantan gli augei, più lieve scote. Sia caso o d'arte, or accompagna, ed ora Alterna i versi lor la musica ora.
