Original text and translations

Italian text Tu piangi, o Filli mia, e pensi estinguer quell'ardente fiamma che sì dolce m'infiamma. Ahi, che sì picciol pianto fa che il core tanto più avvampi di vivace ardore.

English translation You weep, o Phyllis mine and think that you might dampen that ardent flame that so sweet inflames me. Alas, such few tears make my heart blaze even more fiercely with passion. Translation by Campelli
