Purcell: Dido and Aeneas / Act 3 - When I Am Laid In Earth - Dido's Lament) |
Recitative |
Thy hand, Belinda, darkness shades me, |
On thy bosom let me rest, |
More I would, but Death invades me; |
Death is now a welcome guest. |
Aria |
When I am laid, am laid in earth, May my wrongs create |
No trouble, no trouble in thy breast; |
Remember me, but ah! |
forget my fate, |
Remember me, remember me, but ah! |
forget my fate. |
«The King’s Consort». |
