Scherzava e poi fuggìa
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Scherzava e poi fuggìa, questa fera gentile e le reti e le strati havendo a vile. Cacciator fortunato la vide, la seguì, la giunse al varco, ella si rese, ei l'arco allentò e a l'ombra d'un bel lauro amato tutto lieto e gioioso gode quel ben che di cantar non oso.
