Chieder sesterzj diecimila osa
Language: Italian (Italiano) after the Latin
Chieder sesterzj diecimila osa
A me una stupida sfondata tutta,
Codesta laida nasona uggiosa,
Di quel di Formio frusto la putta?
Su, agnati prossimi, poichè a voi spetta
Di questa misera la cura, in fretta
Gli amici e i medici tutti adunate;
Ma che male abbia non ricercate:
È fuor dei gangheri la poveretta.
