Vendetta giusta.
Just revenge.
Mentre disteso nel suo cavo speco
Sta Polyphemo: e
canta, o pecorelle,
Gite pascendo voi l’lherbe
novelle,
Ch’io
mi
pasceṛ poi del sangue Greco:
Ulysse, ch’era
da vicino, audace
L’assalta, e l’occhio
che sol ne la fronte
Havea, gli toglie,
vendicando l’onte
Di mille e mille, e se n’anḍ; con pace.
Cosi’l
fato
quell’empio
a orhezza mena.
E cosi nel suo autor cadde la pena.
