Among the numerous legends
and mysteries
of Venice, the Lovers recall
that of Orio and Malesina.

It was mad love at first
sight of a beautiful Siren who, due to a spell, became her snake on Saturday.
After marrying and having three children , she fell ill and died immediately
He had to look after the
family but in the evening when he returned from work he found everything in
order.
One day he anticipated his
return and found a snake. Frightened he
killed him.
Only later did he realize
that he had killed the
Love of him.
Over time in under the house
of Orio was placed a red stone heart, lucky charm of Lovers.
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Of Heaven, the Queen,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
A Gondolier in Love
go straight and sail silently,
bending over the oar,
tirelessly.
He wants to arrive early
from his bride
to be able to enjoy
a little more
of
joyful intimacy.
He pushes the gondola
which cuts canal water,
while free thoughts
they fly high
to fill the mind.
But
suddenly he remains petrified
from the cries of a woman,
scared,
what a question desperate help.
When he approaches ,
he no longer sees anyone,
but a strong disturbance
he keeps shaking it,
while the soul, upset
from that bestial cry,
perhaps only imagined,
. takes a solemn oath:
I will never treat badly
my Bride,
indeed she will be from heaven
a QUEEN
