Alma mia stancha se'l pensier non erra
Che spesso se rivolge a mirar ...
Ecco Ipse rigens glacie et nivibus pater Appeninus.

Sotto altro cielo e più diverso clima
U' l'extremo Occean Britania cinge:
Ver la stella che in mar mai non se tinge
Lontan dal bel ove
Dal bel paese ov'io nacqui da prima
Sparser luce nascendo scorser lume gli ochi miei,
del vivo sol de' dolci ochi suavi
Voi questo dì, Madonna, celebrate,
Ch'io nacqui al mundo sol per render fede
Coi miei martir quanta è vostra beltate.
