Pietà, Signore, di me dolente! Signor, pietà, se a te giunge il mio pregar; non mi punisca il tuo rigor, meno severi, clementi ognora, volgi i tuoi sguardi sopra di me, ecc. Non fia mai che nell'inferno sia dannato nel fuoco eterno dal tuo rigor. Gran Dio, giammai sia dannato nel fuoco eterno dal tuo rigor, ecc. Pietà, Signore, Signor, pietà di me dolente, se a te giunge il mio pregare, ecc. Meno severi, clementi ognora, volgi i tuoi sguardi, deh! volgi squardi su me, Signor, ecc. Pietà, Signore, di me dolente, ecc.
