"Sete pur fastidioso" Mi disse Lilla un dì, E con ciglio ritroso, Mirandomi partì. Stupido in un istante, Amator vaneggiante, Io di gir o restar irrisoluto, Il suo troppo parlar mi rese muto. "Sete pur dispettoso" Gridò Lilla con me, Ma nel volto vezzoso Vermiglia ella si fè. Avvido de favori, Ammirai quei colori, Ma però vidi ben che quel rossore Nacque da sdegno sol, ma non d'amore.

« Tu es tout à fait ennuyeux. » M'a dit Lilla un jour, Et avec les sourcils arqués, Elle est partie en me regardant. Je fus stupéfait en un instant, Un amant déconcerté, Ne sachant si je devais m'en aller ou rester, Son discours me laissa sans voix. « Tu es tout à fait ennuyeux. » Me cria Lilla, Mais son joli visage Devint tout rouge. Avide de faveur, J'admirais ces couleurs, Mais alors je vis bien que la rougeur Venait seulement de la colère, pas de l'amour.
