Ma i venti che
portavano
le vele
per l'alto mar di quel giovene infido,
portavano anco i prieghi e le querele
de l'infelice Olimpia, e 'l pianto e 'l grido;
la qual tre volte, a se stessa crudele,
per affogarsi si spiccò dal lido:
pur al fin si levò da mirar l'acque,
e ritornò dove la notte giacque.
