Orrida a gl'occhi miei,

il core a te di foco
di gelo fece a me.

My lord, not even Tisiphone
Language: English  after the Italian (Italiano)
My lord, not even Tisiphone
can hold a candle to you;
your visage is so horrid to my sight!
Cupid, for our amusement, has seen fit
to make your heart of fire,
and mine of ice.
