First lines
My wish, Feliciana, is to sing your celebrated beauty; and since it is to be sung, you will be the instrument.
About your ornamented head my love says, with no misgiving, that the high notes of your tresses are in a harmony so fair that with some audacity love proclaims in a gentle voice that he knows how to arrange them, and his touch alone will strum them.
