Contents:
We sing to him -- Music for a while -- Ah! how pleasant 'tis love -- Thrice happy lovers -- Sweeter than roses -- What can we poor females do -- Fairest isle -- If music be the food of love -- I saw that you were grown so high -- Man is for the woman made -- From rosy bowers -- Ah, Belinda, I am prest -- Thy hand, Belinda! When I am laid in earth -- What shall I do -- Your awful voice -- More love and more disdain -- Since from my dear -- The Blessed Virgin's expostulation -- The fatal hour -- I'll sail upon the dog-star -- Silvia, now your scorn -- 'Tis nature's voice -- Bess of Bedlam -- Cease, o my sad soul -- Strike the viol -- Lord, what is man -- Sound the trumpet -- Hark! The ech'ing air -- Not all my torments -- O, lead me to some peaceful gloom -- Sweet, be no longer sad -- I attempt from love's sickness to fly -- An evening hymn -- There's not a swain on the plain -- Nymphs and shepherd -- Hark! How all things -- Come all ye songsters -- The Queen's epicedium -- The knotting song.
