To a Lady singing.
While I listen to thy voice, ChlorisWhile I listen to thy voice, Chloris, I feel my life decay, that pow'rfull noise calls my fleeting soul away; O suppress that magick sound, which destroyes without a wound! Peace, peace, Chloris, peace, or singing dye, that together thou and I to heav'n may go; for all we know of what the blessed do above, is that they sing, and that they love.
