"Mio diletto, mio sospiro"[1] (also "Mio diletto, mio respiro"[2]) is an aria from Franesco Cavalli's opera Elena. The author of the libretti is by Giovanni Faustini and Nicolò Minato who finished it after Faustini's deathCite error: The opening <ref> tag is malformed or has a bad name. The opera premiered at the Teatro San Cassiano in Venice on 26 December 1659.[3]
The duet "Mio diletto, mio sospiro" appears at in Act III Scene I when Helen and Menelaos reconcile. Menelaos has much to account for: after all, charmed by Helen's beauty, he had taken on the guise of a battle-hardened Amazon to get close to her, to offer her combat training, a move which led to his own abduction by an enarmored Teseo.
