3. SONG.
[WHAT detains him? Ah! why stays he?]
ORRILA.
WHAT detains him? Ah! why stays he?Glow-worms, guide his footsteps here!

Friendly moon, my pilgrim cheer!
Lo! where gleam yon lights deluding,
Oft the Fire-king walks the round;
Fogs and vapours there hang brooding,
Bid him shun the fatal ground!
What detains, &c.
Oft the Fire-king walks the round;
Fogs and vapours there hang brooding,
Bid him shun the fatal ground!
What detains, &c.
Where the serpent lurks discover,
Warn him where the pit-fall lies;
Let not danger harm a lover,
Who with faithful passion sighs.
What detains, &c.
Warn him where the pit-fall lies;
Let not danger harm a lover,
Who with faithful passion sighs.
What detains, &c.
