Weeping, get me home again,

This the saddest, last procession

Of the five dear brothers slain.

VOCERO OF A HERDSMAN'S WIFE OF TALAVO, ON HER HUSBAND.

On the beach his corpse is lying

Where the two old cork-trees spread;

O Francesco! faithful herdsman!

Fearful 'tis to see thee dead!

How shall I, by thee forsaken,

Gloomy forest-pathways tread?
