Z 368 Ask me to love no more. [Neapolitan translation]

Ask me to love no more,

Your fruitless pain, and all your art give o'er.

Amintor, why would you inspire

In my breast an unequal fire?

Why, Amintor, should I burn

In flames which you can ne'er return?

Too many hearts already you have deceiv'd;

Alas! you're known too well to be believ'd.
