4. So che un sogno e la speranza
 (Sung text)

Language: Italian (Italiano) 
So che un sogno è la speranza,
so che spesso il ver non dice;
ma pietosa ingannatrice
consolando almen mi va.
 
Fra quei sogni il core ha pace
e capace almen si rende
di sue barbare vicende
a soffrir la crudeltà.

Text Authorship:

  • by Pietro Antonio Domenico Bonaventura Trapassi (1698 - 1782), as Pietro Metastasio, no title, appears in Il ruggiero ovvero L'eroica gratitudine

6. Quel ruscelletto  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Quel ruscelletto 
Che l'onde chiare
Or or col mare 
Confondera
Nel mormorio 
Del fuoco mio
Colle sue sponde 
Parlandova

Fin l'augelletto
Cantando dice
Piu vag' oggetto
Sperar non lice
ne mai più bella
La fedelta

Quel ruscelletto, etc. 

In ogni faggio
In ogni alloro
Il dolce nome
Del mio tesoro
Il dolce nome
Del mio tesoro
Scolpito  v'ha scolpito v'ha

Quel ruscelletto etc.
