Little is known of James Radcliffe beyond his description of himself on the title-page of his set of glees (pub. c.1790) as being "of Worcester Cathedral". He was a Lay Clerk there from 1780, but was suspended for absenteeism in 1791, and permanently dismissed in 1793.
Lyrics: John Gilbert Cooper
Hark, how the renovating spring
Invites the feathered choir to sing;
Spontaneous mirth and rapture glow
On ev'ry tree, on ev'ry bough.
Their little airs a lesson give:
They teach us mortals how to live,
And well advise us, whilst we can,
To spend in joy the vital span.
Hark, how the renovating spring
Invites the feathered choir to sing;
Spontaneous mirth and rapture glow
On ev'ry tree, on ev'ry bough.
Their little airs a lesson give:
They teach us mortals how to live,
And well advise us, whilst we can,
To spend in joy the vital span.
