Lyrics

I rage, I rage, I melt, I burn. The feeble god has stabbed me to the heart. Thou trusty pine, prop of my god-like steps, I lay thee by! Bring me a hundred reeds of decent growth, To make a pipe for my capacious mouth; In soft enchanting accents let me Breathe sweet Galatea's beauty, And my love.
