"A favourite Glee sung with universal Applause at Vauxhall Gardens", 1794.
Lyrics: Anon, probably the composer

"Why is love so past defining?
Tell me, reason", Chloe cried;
Cupid, on his bow reclining,
Heard the nymph and thus replied:
"'Tis not reason can inform thee,
Learn from me", and shot a dart;
"Does no secret passion warm thee?"
"Yes", she cried, "'tis in my heart".
