Paride ed Elena

O del mio dolce ardor
Bramato oggetto,
L'aura che tu respiri,
Alfin respiro.

O vunque il guardo io giro,
Le tue vaghe sembianze
Amore in me dipinge:
Il mio pensier si finge
Le più liete speranze;
E nel desio che così
M'empie il petto
Cerco te, chiamo te, spero e sospiro.

Spiagge amate ove talora
l'idol mio lieta s'aggira ruscelletti
ove si mira quando infiora il crine o il sen.
Chiari fonti, ove si bagna,
erbe in cui passa le piante,
Voi pietose a un core amante,
dite voi, che fa il mio ben?
Chiari fonti, ruscelletti, spiagge amate,
ove si bagna, ove si mira, ove s'aggira
dite, dite voi...
