SCENE III.

A view of the fea, with a vessel at a distance. [Here follows a Pastoral Procession to the wedding of Thyrsis.]
PRIEST.

RECITATIVE.

View this swain and virgin fair;

May they ever thus impart
Just return of heart for heart.
May the pledges of their bliss
Climb their knees to share the kifs.
May their steady blooming youth,
While they tread the paths of truth,

While they tread the paths of truth,
Virtues catch from either side,
From the bridegroom and the bride.
