Ride Silvia vezzosa,
I'orgend' al suo Montano,
Un bianco giglio e una vermiglia rosa,
Porg' ei l'avida mano,
E bacia il dono et ella hor dimmi dove
Il bon bacio si prenda, egli rispose
Là dove spira il grato Zefiro ch'arde Giove.
Vuoi dir fra queste labbra che le rose
Sembran' e gigli c'hor io t'ho donato,
Ella soggionse e'l bacia e poi spario,
Ne pur disse Pastor ti lascio à Dio.
