[The King, the princes of the court ]
DUET—SOPHIA AND FREDERICA.
The king, the princes of the court,
With lords and ladies bright,
Will in their dazzling state resort
To this grand fête to-night:
The merry-hearted and the proud
Will mingle in the glittering crowd,
Who glide with Fashion's sparkling stream
Where one I love will shine supreme!—
La ra la, la ra la, la la la, etc.
With lords and ladies bright,
Will in their dazzling state resort
To this grand fête to-night:
The merry-hearted and the proud
Will mingle in the glittering crowd,
Who glide with Fashion's sparkling stream
Where one I love will shine supreme!—
La ra la, la ra la, la la la, etc.
The cavaliers of Italy,
The gay gallants of France,
With Spain and England's chivalry,
Will join the merry dance.
The court of Love—the camp of Mars,
Fair Prussian dames, “earth-treading stars,”
To music's strain will float in light,
Where one I love will beam to-night!—
La ra la, la ra la, la la la, etc.
The gay gallants of France,
With Spain and England's chivalry,
Will join the merry dance.
The court of Love—the camp of Mars,
Fair Prussian dames, “earth-treading stars,”
To music's strain will float in light,
Where one I love will beam to-night!—
La ra la, la ra la, la la la, etc.
