ON HER WEDDING DAY.
Rejoice, rejoice! the rustick sings,
Lay all your cares aside:
Of Damon gay the village rings,
And Phillida his bride.
Lay all your cares aside:
Of Damon gay the village rings,
And Phillida his bride.
See, see, the train of bridal nymphs,
In Virtue's mien array'd;
White as the snow-crown'd Alpine tops,
To grace the charming maid.
In Virtue's mien array'd;
White as the snow-crown'd Alpine tops,
To grace the charming maid.

All looks are drest like Flora gay,
When wrapt in Sol's embrace;
And ringing, singing, crowns the day,
Joy gladdens ev'ry face.
When wrapt in Sol's embrace;
And ringing, singing, crowns the day,
Joy gladdens ev'ry face.
Rejoice, rejoice! the rustick sings,
Lay all your cares aside;
Of Damon gay the village rings,
And Phillida his bride.
Lay all your cares aside;
Of Damon gay the village rings,
And Phillida his bride.
