"[Sonetto IX]
Spesse fiate vegnomi a la mente
le oscure qualità ch’Amor mi dona,
e vienmene pietà, sì che sovente
io dico: "Lasso!, avviene elli a persona?";
Ch’Amor m’assale subitamente,
sì che la vita quasi m’abbandona:
campami un spirto vivo solamente,
e que’ riman perché di voi ragiona.
Poscia mi sforzo, ché mi voglio aitare;
e così smorto, d’onne valor vòto,
vegno a vedervi, credendo guerire:
e se io levo li occhi per guardare,
nel cor mi si comincia uno tremoto,
che fa da’ polsi l’anima partire."
