Prima parte Ohimè, dov'è il mio ben? Dov'è il mio core? Chi m'asconde il mio core: e chi me 'l toglie? Seconda parte Dunque ha potuto sol desio d'honore Darmi fera cagion di tante doglie? Terza parte Dunque ha potuto in me più che 'l mio amore Ambitiose, e troppo lievi voglie? Quarta parte Ahi sciocco mondo, e cieco! ahi cruda sorte, Che ministro mi fai de la mia morte.
