I ran to look at her, and filled with astonishment:
"She is not a woman - I said to me -
for ray shines in her more than earthly,
but the envoy of the Sun, candid Goddess."
(from 'The white dress', Ciro di Pers, 1689)

Corsi a mirarla, e di stupor ripieno:
"Donna non è costei – fra me dicea, –
ché raggio splende in lei piú che terreno,
ma la nunzia del Sol, candida Dea."
(da 'La veste bianca', Ciro di Pers, 1689)
