147505 : Arne : Tell me where is fancy bred (air) : sheet music
Catalogued as Choral - Secular (Shakespeare) (Songs and Concert Airs)

From Twelfth Night. First sung in the 1741 production by Kitty Clive.
Lyrics: William Shakespeare

Tell me where is fancy bred,
Or in the heart or in the head?
Where begot, where nourished?
Reply.
It is engender'd in the eyes,
With gazing fed; and fancy dies
In the cradle, where it lies.
