Description
The title refers to an Italian art song by Giulio Caccini, which in turn alludes to the Greek myth of Amaryllis.
Amarilli, mia bella,
non credi, o del mio cor dolce desio,
d’esser tu l’amor mio?
Credilo pur, e se timor t’assale,
prendi questo mio strale
aprimi il petto e vedrai scritto in core:
Amarilli è il mio amore.
Amaryllis, my beauty
do you not believe, o sweet desire of my heart
that you are my love?
Believe it, and if you fear
take this my arrow,
open my breast and you shall see written in my heart:
Amaryllis is my love.
