Italian text

Laura che'l verde lauro,
Et l'aureo crine soavemente sospirando move,
Fa con sue viste leggiadrett' e nove,
L'anime da lor corpi peregrine,

Candida rosa nata in dure spine,
Quando fia che sua pari al mondo trove,
Gloria di nostr' etade o vivo Giove,
Manda prego il mio in prima che'l suo fine.
