Dèi pietosi, in tal cimento
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Dèi pietosi, in tal cimento par che machi il mio valor. Ah non so, se quel ch’ io sento sia viltade o sia timor. Ma si vinca ormai da forte; no m’ involi alcun la palma. Ah ch’ io gelo… Manca l’ alma, agitar mi sento il cor. Dèi pietosi ! Manca l’ alma, agitar mi sento il cor.
