Arai tu mai pietà [di me] BaG (xyyX ababbccX)

note: see CattinSq, 249; WilsonSC, 74; Diederichs, 53-4, 73. Music ed. in PMFC4, no.57 (where the incipit is ‘Ara’ tu pietà mai di me, o giovinetta’). The intended cc. for ‘Mercè’ may in fact be a different secular ballata with a similar title, ‘Arai tu mai pietà donna crudel’; see this title as a cc. for the lauda ‘Volgi li occhi tuoi in qua’.
