1  La velenosa vista e’l fiero sguardo
Del Basilisco a l’huom toglie la vita;
E voi con gl’occhi per virtù d’Amore
Togliete a chi vi mira anima e core.

2  L'Aspe, pien di mortifero veleno,
Chiude l'orecchio all'efficace incanto;
E voi, donna crudel, iniqua eria,
Vi fate sorda l'aspra pena mia.

3  Col dolcissimo canto le Sirene
Ai naviganti fan sentir la morte;
Col soave parlar, di grazia adorno,
Voi mi uccidete mille volte al giorno.

4  Tal che privo di speme in questo mondo,
Io vivo sol al mondo desiando;
Ch'amor per far eterna la mia pena,
V'ha fatto Basilisco, Aspe e sirena.
