  • Text: Non di laocoonte il duro esempio, /Non chi cesar lego tra i fiori, e l'herba /No'l figlio di chi 'l ciel su 'l dosso serba, /No'l thosco sembro, a cui su amor tant empio /Ma d'ogni alto dolor' unvino Tempio; /Qual puo chiaro mostrar mia vita acerba /Qui in preda a un' sape' a una lena soperbe/E i lor feri defiri ogn' hor piu adempio. //Ne bramo vita hor, che mia luce e priua/ Del suo caro Thesor, ch' in fuga e uolto/ Il qual una piu d' ogn' altro il cor mi tragge:/ E' amor', e a chi mi diede' ci preso e inuolto,/ Nel mezzo a queste fere aspre et Seluagge/ Quinci uuol (lasso) ogn' hor morendo viua / ANT. SAL. EXC. 1542
