n Scene 3 (Orlando e Dorinda)<br />
Recitativo orlando Pur ti trovo, o mio bene<br />
E dopo tante pene<br />
Pur giungo a riveder il tuo sembiante!<br />
Tu non rispondi?<br />
dorinda Se mi vuole in consorte<br />
Saria per me di questo Eroe la preda:<br />
Chi sa? Giove altre volte arse per Leda.<br />
orlando E tu non parli ancora?<br />
Dimmi crudel, se vuoi, ch’io viva o mora<br />
orlando Unisca amor in noi<br />
Gli miei, gli affettituoi<br />
Venere bella.<br />
dorinda Ed innestar tu vuoi<br />
Al sangue degli eroi<br />
Me pastorella?<br />
dorinda Io son Dorinda.<br />
(Addio speranze! Per mia fe’ delira)<br />
orlando Per Angelica mia se tu sei morto<br />
Ora ne vuò vendetta.<br />
(Vuol tira r la spada, e mettersi in postura<br />
di battaglia)<br />
dorinda Signor aspetta …<br />
orlando Sì, sì, v’intendo ben.<br />
Or ch’io ho lasciato l’armi<br />
Son pronto a vendicarmi<br />
(Getta l’elmo e la spada)<br />
(Orlando and Dorinda)<br />
Ah! have I found thee then at last, my fairest?<br />
And after such vicissitudes of woe<br />
do I once more behold they lovely face?<br />
Wilt thou not answer me?<br />
The conquest of this hero will be glorious,<br />
should he determine to espouse me now;<br />
and who can tell how the event may prove?<br />
The breast of Jove once glowed for lovely Leda.<br />
Still art thou silent? Tell me, I entreat thee,<br />
thou cruel fair one, must I live or die?<br />
My charming Venus, hear my prayer<br />
let all-propitious Love prepare<br />
to join with his endearing bands<br />
our corresponding hearts and hands.<br />
And can you condescend to join<br />
the blood of heroes thus with mine,<br />
and rank with one of your degree<br />
a humble shepherdess like me?<br />
I am Dorinda.<br />
Farewell my hopes! For by my truth he raves.<br />
If for my dear Angelica you died<br />
I now determine to avenge your fall,<br />
(Draws his sword, and puts himself into a<br />
posture for combat)<br />
Ah hold, my Lord!<br />
I understand you well.<br />
I without arms<br />
am ready for my vengeance.<br />
(Casts away his sword and helmet)<br />
Aria di Orlando orlando Già lo stringo, già l’abbraccio<br />
Now I clasp my foe in fight<br />
Con la forza del mio braccio<br />
with my arms’ unerring might<br />
Nuovo Anteo l’alzo da terra:<br />
and raise with a resistless bound<br />
E se vinto non si<br />
