La mia augusta è mia tiranna. Anche il padre mi condanna. Altro scampo non ho, che l'innocenza. Ma in tanta crudeltà forte mi troverà la ria sentenza.
Alessandro Severo
Opera by Antonio Lotti (1667 - 1740)

Dell'infido a te s'aspetta
Dell'infido a te s'aspetta la vendetta, mia oltraggiata fedeltà. Se tacendo or lo difendo, è furore, e sembra amore; è fierezza, e par pietà.

Non mi parlar d'amor
Non mi parlar d'amor. Idee di più valor medita l'alma. Se il ciel mi arriderà, anche il tuo cor, chi sa? Speri la calma.

L'alma corre alla vendetta
L'alma corre alla vendetta, ma costretta; né virtù le dà soccorso. A ragion preval natura, e all'amor cede il rimorso.

Non ho in petto un'alma ingrata
Non ho in petto un'alma ingrata. So punir, e so premiar. Contra il fasto armo il rigor. Con la fede uso l'amor. L'arte è questa del regnar: saper farsi temer, e farsi amar.
