Pietosissimo Amore tu mai non abbandoni chi ti consacra riverente il core chi cieco ti figura chi nudo chi bendato chi di saette armato non provò tua dolcissima natura morir ne morir mai languir ma per un poco e gloria del tuo foce Vieni deh vieni à noi vieni gioia dell'alme spargi spargi benigno i doni tuoi e d'un cortese affetto alla Barbara mia feconda il petto.
