Anima del cor mio, poichè da me, misera me, ti parti, s'ami conforto alcun a' miei martiri, non isdegnar ch'almen ti segua anch'io, solo co'miei sospiri e sol per rimembrarti ch'in tante pene e in cosí fiero scempio vivrò d'amor, di vera fede esempio.

Âme de mon cœur, pourquoi de moi, malheureuse que je suis, t'en vas-tu ? Si tu veux être un quelconque réconfort à mes souffrances, ne m'empêche pas au moins de te suivre aussi, seulement avec mes soupirs et seulement pour te rappeler que dans tant de peines et dans un si féroce tourment vivant d'amour, l'exemple de la vraie fidélité.
