Whose glance reflecting inspiration + 

With tenderness hath recognized + 

Thy meditative incantation⁠— + 

Whom hath thy strain immortalized? + 

None, be my witness Heaven above! + 

The malady of hopeless love + 

I have endured without respite. + 

Happy who thereto can unite + 

Poetic transport. They impart + 

A double force unto their song + 

Who following Petrarch move along + 

And ease the tortures of the heart⁠— + 

Perchance they laurels also cull⁠— + 

But I, in love, was mute and dull. + 
