RECITATIVE.

[Arise, and bid adieu to care]

Arise, and bid adieu to care,
Speak my words, and banish fear;
In this magic wand reside
Fancy's frolics, pow'r and pride.
Lightly touch then Satire's ground,
Scatter all my follies round;
Come, come quick the rites prepare,
Speak my words, and banish fear.
