Italian text

Mirtillo
Udite, lagrimosi spirti d'Averno,
Udite nova sorte di pena e di tormento.
Mirate crudo affetto
In sembiante pietoso.
La mia donna crudel più de l'Inferno,
Perch' una sola morte
Non può far sazia la sua ingorda voglia
E la mia vita è quasi una perpetua morte,
Mi comanda, ch'i viva, perche la vita mia
Di mille morti il dì ricetto sia.

Guarini, Il pastor fido, Atto 3, Scena 6

English translation

Mirtillo
Ye tortur'd spirits, hear,
That in Avernus' doleful regions dwell,
Hear a new torment I endure;
See under pity's mask conceal'd
A horrid kind of love. She I adore
Loads me with greater sufferings still than yours,
Because a single death alone
Is far too scant to glut her fell revenge.
My life is only a perpetual death;
She bids me live, more fierceness to display,
And make me die a thousand times a day!
