Alla caccia dell'alme e de'cori
Language: Italian (Italiano)

Aria I
Alla caccia dell'alme e de'cori
la barbara Clori,
Amanti, s'en va.

Già i lacci dispone,
le reti già stende,
al varco v'attende
quell'empia beltà.

Recitativo
Ma sia crudele o infida, oh Dio, mi piace.
E sebben sia spietato,
da quel bel volto, o cor, tu sei legato.

Aria II
Preso sei, mio cor piagato,
 non sperar, non sperar più
 dalla bella servitù
 di poter spiegar il volo.
Consolar bensì tu puoi
 ché a provare i lacci suoi
 non sei primo e non sei solo.
