Sympathy
Language: English after the Italian (Italiano)
Our translations: DUT
In thee I bear so dear a part, By love so firm, so firm am thine, That each affection of thy heart By sympathy is mine. When thou art griev'd, I grieve no less, My joys by thine are known, And ev'ry good thou would'st possess Becomes in wish my own.
