On CD: Ardo infelice, e palesar non tento, stanza 1
Maria, dolce Maria
Ecco, ch'io verso il sangue
Lasciatemi qui solo
O che nuovo stupor, stanza 1
Rendi alle mie speranze il verde, e fiori
Haec dies
Chi desia di saper che cosa è amore
Se muove a giurar fede
Dispiegate
Ferma, ferma crudele
Deh, se non hai pietà del mio languire.
