| Still have I sought a life of solitude | C |
| The streams the fields the forests know my mind | D |
| That I might 'scape the sordid and the blind | D |
| Who paths forsake trod by the wise and good | E |
| Fain would I leave were mine own will pursued | C |
| These Tuscan haunts and these soft skies behind | D |
| Sorga's thick wooded hills again to find | D |
| And sing and weep in concert with its flood | F |
| But Fortune ever my sore enemy | G |
| Compels my steps where I with sorrow see | G |
| Cast my fair treasure in a worthless soil | H |
| Yet less a foe she justly deigns to prove | I |
| For once to me to Laura and to love | J |
| Favouring my song my passion with her smile | K |

| Still have I sought a life of solitude | C |
| This know the rivers and each wood and plain | M |
| That I might 'scape the blind and sordid train | M |
| Who from the path have flown of peace and good | E |
| Could I my wish obtain how vainly would | E |
| This cloudless climate woo me to remain | M |
| Sorga's embowering woods I'd seek again | N |
| And sing weep wander by its friendly flood | F |
| But ah my fortune hostile still to me | G |
| Compels me where I must indignant find | D |
| Amid the mire my fairest treasure thrown | O |
| Yet to my hand not all unworthy she | G |
| Now proves herself at least for once more kind | D |
| Since but alone to Love and Laura be it known | O |
