Lyrics: John Dryden
Chloe found Amyntas lying
All in tears upon the plain,
Sighing to himself and crying
"Wretched I to love in vain,
Ever scorning and denying
To reward a faithful swain;
Kiss me dear before my dying,
Kiss me once and ease my pain."
Chloe, laughing at his crying,
Told him that he loved in vain;
But, repenting and complying,
When she kissed, she kissed again;
Kissed him up before his dying,
Kissed him up and eased his pain.
Chloe found Amyntas lying
All in tears upon the plain,
Sighing to himself and crying
"Wretched I to love in vain,
Ever scorning and denying
To reward a faithful swain;
Kiss me dear before my dying,
Kiss me once and ease my pain."
Chloe, laughing at his crying,
Told him that he loved in vain;
But, repenting and complying,
When she kissed, she kissed again;
Kissed him up before his dying,
Kissed him up and eased his pain.
