LA FORTUNA DELLO STRESSO, by PIETRO METASTASIOPoet's Biography
First Line: To him whom kindly I behold Last Line: And waveless be the main. Alternate Author Name(s): Trapassi, Pietro Antonio Domenico
To him whom kindly I behold, The midnight sky is clear, And 'mid the wintry frost and cold, The blushing flowers appear.
But to the wretch who meets my eye, When kindled by disdain, The very grove will leaves deny, And waveless be the main.
