Original text and translations

Italian text

Invidioso Amor del mio bel stato
E del riposo mio
sdegnoso prese l'arme sue in man
e tosto l'arco tese
Et contra me si fece tutt'armato
io che da lui giamai non fui più offeso
Incauto ne restai ferito e preso
Et col bel mezo d'un sereno volto
il mio voler et non voler m'ha tolto
