Ma dove, oh lasso me!, dove restaro
le reliquie del corpo e bello e casto?
Ciò ch'in lui sano i miei furor lasciaro,
dal furor de le fère è forse guasto.
Ahi troppo nobil preda! ahi dolce e caro
troppo e pur troppo prezioso pasto!
ahi sfortunato! in cui l'ombre e le selve
irritaron me prima e poi le belve.
