Libretto
Occhi miei che vedeste
(My eyes, when you saw)
from Musiche Varie, Book I
Benedetto Ferrari (music), uncertain (words)
Occhi miei, che vedeste
Il bell'idolo vostro in preda altrui
Perchè non vi chiudeste?
E tu anima mia
Perch'al gran duolo
Non te'n fuggisti à volo?
Ahi che posso dire
Ch'il soverchio dolor non fa morire.
