Catalogued as Choral - Secular (Songs and Concert Airs)
Twelve songs by William Jackson of Exeter. Op. XVI. London, 1793.
Lyrics: Anon
Sweet was the sun's last parting ray,
Shot upwards from the streaky west;
Solemn the waning tide of day,
And evening's silent hour of rest.
But ah! The soul by arrows torn
What time, what hour can e'er delight?
My griefs awaken with the morn,
Nor vanish with the shades of night.
Sweet was the sun's last parting ray,
Shot upwards from the streaky west;
Solemn the waning tide of day,
And evening's silent hour of rest.
But ah! The soul by arrows torn
What time, what hour can e'er delight?
My griefs awaken with the morn,
Nor vanish with the shades of night.
