English poem
Florentine Exiles
by Michelangelo Buonarroti (1568–1646)
For many, for a thousand lovers, thou, Lady, wert made of form angelical. Asleep, perchance, lie sealèd heavens now, While one enjoyeth grant designed for all. Ah render to our sighs The sunlight of thine eyes, That shunneth him, who into sorrow born, Doth languish of their benefit forlorn!
