Canzone LXXXII
Language:
Italian
Io non fu' d'amar voi lassato unquancho,
madonna, né sarò mentre ch'io viva;
ma d'odiar me medesmo giunto a riva,
et del continuo lagrimar so' stancho;
et voglio anzi un sepolcro bello et biancho,
che 'l vostro nome a mio danno si scriva
in alcun marmo, ove di spirto priva
sia la mia carne, che pò star seco ancho.
Però, s'un cor pien d'amorosa fede
può contentarve senza farne stracio,
piacciavi omai di questo aver mercede.
Se 'n altro modo cerca d'esser sacio,
vostro sdegno erra, et non fia quel che crede:
di che Amor et me stesso assai ringracio.
