Andreas Scholl, Accademia Bizantina, Stefano Montanari

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».
