Il gran Giove non si gloria d'altre belle esser amante Gode solo Dio costante Quando in seno e di Vittoria. La Vittoria d'un bel Rovere Al suo Giove adorna il crine Nel cui verde in aure e brine Già la gloria venne à piovere. Nacque già nobil primitia Già gli rese il ciel fecondi Ma d'Etruria anco i sei mondi D'alti Eroi voglion douitia.
