Chi vuol veder
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Available translation(s): FRE
Chi vuol veder visibilmente Amore, guardi colei che m'ha rubato il core. Negli occhi suoi dimora e fa soggiorno, e tiene un arco in man, cocche, saetta. Non ferisce ogni uom che glie d'intorno, nè chi d'innamorarne si diletta, ma sol colui che vede ch'a valore costanza di starle servidore.
