Willem Haenraets / William Shakespeare | Romantic Rhythm

Il mio occhio s'è fatto pittore ed ha tracciato

L'immagine tua bella sul quadro del mio cuore;

il mio corpo è cornice in cui è racchiusa,

Prospettica, eccellente arte pittorica,

Ché attraverso il pittore devi vederne l'arte

Per trovar dove sia la tua autentica immagine dipinta,
