was a Loyal _Scot_ tho' dead and gone, And _Jenny_ in her _Daddy's_ way with muckle Joy shall move: Laugh at the _Kirk-Apostles_ & the Canting swarms, And fight with bonny Lads that love their Monarchy and King, Then _Jenny_ fresh and blith shall take thee in her Arms, And give thee twanty Kisses, and perhaps a better thing. _A_ SONG _in the_ Fairy Queen. _Sung by Mrs._ Dyer. [Music] I Am come to lock all fast, Love without me cannot last: Love, like counsels of the Wise, Must be hid from vulgar Eyes; 'Tis holy, 'tis holy, and we must, we must conceal it, They prophane it, they prophane it, who reveal it, They prophane it, they profane it, who reveal it. _A New_ SONG, _Set to the FLUTE._ [Music] After the pangs of fierce Desire, The doubts and hopes that wait on Love; And feed by turns the raging Fire, How charming must Fruition prove: When the triumphant Lover feels, None of those Pains which once he bore; Or when reflecting on his Ills, He makes his Pleasure, Pleasure more, He makes his Pleasure, Pleasure more. _A_ SONG _in the Comedy call'd_ Sir Anthony Love: _Or_, The Rambling Lady, _Set by Mr._ HENRY PURCELL.

[Music] My dear _Corinna_ give me leave, To gaze, to gaze on her I Love; The Gods cou'd never, never yet conceive, Her Worth, tho' from above; There's none on Earth can equalize, So sweet, so sweet a Soul as she; Who ever gains so great a Prize, Has all, has all that Heav'n can be. Curse on my Fate, who plac'd me here, In a Sphere, a Sphere, so much below, My Love, my Life, my all that's dear; And yet she must not know: The torment for her I sustain, Shall ill, shall ill rewarded be; When loving, when loving, a
