Se sour' ogni uso human'in dure tempre,
ard'e si sfac'el core,
et io non oso discourir l'ardore,
a cui libera e sciolta
d'ogn'amoros'in charco ad altr'e volta,
forz'e ch'al fin mi stempre,
e'n cener mi convert'a poc'a poco,
se non prove d'amore,
O ch'a lei pari’anchor s'accend'il foco,
O ch'a me ardir e forze porga'l parlar
ch'almen l'incendio smorze.
