Madonna il tuo bel viso,
Che nel gran mar d'amor m'è duce e scorta,
Hora tien viva mia speranza, hor morta,
Et qual hor scorge in esso un bel sereno,
Spiega la vela al vento,
Senza temer di scoglio o di procella,
Ma se la luce nel camin vien meno,
Ripiena di spavento,
Cala la vela ala sua navicella,
All' instabil tua stella
Scorre l'onde fallace a dritto e a torto,
E teme, e spera, e mai non vede il porto.
