GIOVANI amanti voi chi Sapele,
EArte secreti d'un crudo Amor;
In Cortesia scoltato tin puoro,
L Ardente fuoco chi marde il Cor.
Egia tre mesi eft una sitella,
Le giadra Bella cKogni lo sa;
Quel sua bel chilio eosei Gallanie,
Mi feci ama?iti di sua bella.

YE Beaus of Pleasure,
Whose Wit at Leasure,
Can Count Loves Treasure,
It's Joy and Smart ;
At my desire,
With me retire,
To know what fire,
Consumes my Heart :
At my desire,
With me retire,
To know what fire,
Consumes my Heart.
Three Moons that hasted,
Are hardly wasted,
Since I was blasted,
With Beauty's Ray :
Aurora shows ye,
No Face so Rosie,
No July's Posie,
So fresh and gay,
Aurora, &c.
