📖 Excerpt from Opere Sacre dell'Abate Pietro MetastasioIl bel nodo di pace\. Congiuntii sogli', i sudditi fedeli; talami reali Ricchi di prole. E che non fia concegso. Da chi per voi sacrificò sè stesso Senza tema in suo cammino Di perii e di procelle ll nocchiero il pellegrino Passi i monti e varchi il mar. Siano amiche a voi le'stelie Siano a vox felici i giorni E dal ciel quaggiùritorni L' innocen'za ad albergar.'About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
