Liedtext |
As Vesta was from Latmos hill descending, She spied a maiden Queen the same ascending, Attended on by all he shepherds ?swain; To whom Diana's darlings came running down amain, First two by two, then three by three together, Leaving their goddess all alone, hasted thither; And mingling with the shepherds of her train, With mirthful tunes her presence did entertain. Then sang the shepherds and nymphs of Diana: Long live fair Oriana. |
