Ode on the death of Mr. Henry Purcell. Mark, how the lark and linnet sing. So ceas'd the rival Crew when Purcell came. We beg not hell, our Orpheus to restore. The heav'nly quire, who heard his notes from high -- Songs from Amphion angelicus. Cloe found Amintis lying all in tears. Why weeps Asteria?. Loving above himself (Poor Celadon). Shepherds deck your crooks. Ah heav'n! what is't I hear? Epilogue : Sing, sing ye Muses.
