Purcell: The Indian Queen, Z. 630 - Ed A. Pinnock, M. Laurie / Act 3 - We The Spirits Of The Air |
We the spirits of the air |
That of human things take care, |
Out of pity now descend |
To forewarn what woes attend. |
Greatness clogg’d with scorn decays, |
With the slave no empire stays. |
We the spirits of the air |
That of human things take care, |
Out of pity now descend |
To forewarn what woes attend. |
Cease to languish the in vain |
Since never to be loved again. |
We the spirits of the air |
That of human things take care, |
Out of pity now descend |
To forewarn what woes attend. |
