1 Nymph

Great, transcendent Pair for Birth,
Virtue as corporeal Beauty
T'whom of Duty

2 Nymph

Stoops prime Excellence on Earth

Both Nymphs

See what Heav'n restore
For you more.

Chorus of Water-Nymphs, Sea-Gods.

Gifts thought worthy your Receit;
To advance and make more Great
Your Honour, Happiness, Compleat.
