| O friend though left a wretched pilgrim here | C |
| By thee though left in solitude to roam | D |
| Yet can I mourn that thou hast found thy home | D |
| On angel pinions borne in bright career | E |
| Now thou behold'st the ever turning sphere | E |
| And stars that journey round the concave dome | D |
| Now thou behold'st how short of truth we come | F |
| How blind our judgment and thine own how clear | E |
| That thou art happy soothes my soul oppress'd | G |
| O friend salute from me the laurell'd band | H |
| Guitton and Cino Dante and the rest | G |
| And tell my Laura friend that here I stand | H |
| Wasting in tears scarce of myself possess'd | G |
| While her blest beauties all my thoughts command | H |

| Sennuccio mine I yet myself console | J |
| Though thou hast left me mournful and alone | K |
| For eagerly to heaven thy spirit has flown | K |
| Free from the flesh which did so late enrol | J |
| Thence at one view commands it either pole | J |
| The planets and their wondrous courses known | K |
| And human sight how brief and doubtful shown | K |
| Thus with thy bliss my sorrow I control | J |
| One favour in the third of those bright spheres | B |
| Guido and Dante Cino too salute | L |
| With Franceschin and all that tuneful train | M |
| And tell my lady how I live in tears | B |
| Savage and lonely as some forest brute | L |
| Her sweet face and fair works when memory brings again | N |
