Liedtext

The nymphs and shepherds danced
Lavoltos in a daisy-tap'stried valley.
Love from their face-lamps glanced,
Till wantonly they dally.
Then in a rose-banked alley
Bright Majesty advanced,
A crown-graced virgin whom all people honour.
They leave their sport amazed,
Run all to look upon her.
A moment scarce they gazed
Ere beauty's splendour all their eyes had dazed,
Desire to see yet ever fixed on her.
Then sang the shepherds and nymphs of Diana:
Long live fair Oriana.
