she tunes the trembling Strings; Oft does some pitying Words rehearse, But little means the thing she Sings. Cease on her lovely Looks to gaze, Nor court your Ruin in her Eyes; Her Looks too 's dangerous as her Face, At once engages and Destroys: Speak not if you'd avoid your Fate, For then she darts Resentment home; But fly, fly _Damon_ e'er too late, Or else be Deaf, be Blind, be Dumb. MERCURY _to_ PARIS, _in the Prize Musick, Compos'd by Mr._ John Eccles. [Music] Fear not Mortal, none shall harm thee, With this Sacred Rod I'll Charm thee; Freely gaze, and view all over, Thou mayst every Grace discover: Though a thousand Darts fly round thee, Fear not Mortal, none can Wound thee; _Though a thousand Darts fly round thee,_ _Fear not Mortal, none can Wound thee._ _A_ SONG. _Set by Mr._ W. Morley. [Music] Born to surprize the World, Born to surprize the World, and teach the Great, The slippery Danger of exalted State; Victorious _Marlborough_, Victorious _Marlborough_, to Battle flies, Arm'd, Arm'd with new Lightning from bright _Anna's_ Eyes: Wonders, Wonders like these no former Age has seen, The Subjects Heroes, the Subjects Heroes, and a Saint the Queen. _A_ SONG. _Set by Mr._ J.

[Music] See how fair and fine she lies, Upon her Bridal Bed; No Lady at the Court, So fit for the Sport, Oh she look'd so curiously White and Red: After the first and second time, The weary Bridegroom slacks his Pace; But Oh! she cries, come, come my Joy, And cling thy Cheek close to my Face: Tinkle, tinkle, goes the Bell under the Bed, Whilst Time and Touch they keep; Then with a Kiss, They end their Bliss, And so fall fast asleep. _A_ SONG. _Set by Mr._ J. ISUM. [Music] _Corinna_ if my Fate's to love you, _Corinna_ if my Fate's to love you, Wh
