Circa mea pectora multa sunt suspiria
De tua pulchritudine, que me ledunt misere
(Venus! I trow'd thou wast my friend)
I trow'd thou wast my friend
(Professed to Heaven thou wouldst send)
Heaven thou wouldst send
(As a disciple of a villain)
As disciple of a villain
(Didst thou act the tragedienne)
Didst thou act the tragedienne
Iam amore virginali totus ardeo
Iam amore virginali totus ardeo
Amor volat undique, captus est libidine
(Venus! I trow'd thou wast my friend)
I trow'd thou wast my friend
(Professed to Heaven thou wouldst send)
Heaven thou wouldst send
(As a disciple of a villain)
As disciple of a villain
(Didst thou act the tragedienne)
Didst thou act the tragedienne
Iam amore virginali totus ardeo
Iam amore virginali totus ardeo
Circa mea pectora multa sunt suspiria
De tua pulchritudine, que me ledunt misere
Tui lucent oculi sicut solis radij
Sicut splendor fulguris, qui lucem donat tenebris
