Original text and translations

Italian text Se'l venir fù partita che mi tolse la vita, perche col fuggir via con voi non mi rapisti acciò contraria sia di Ganimede la perdita mia.

Dutch translation Als komen het heengaan was dat mij het leven kostte, omdat je me niet ontvoert als ik met jou weg loop; zo is mijn verlies anders dan van Ganymedes.

English translation If coming was going that took my life, because you don't kidnap me when I run away with you; so my loss is different from Ganymede's.
