Chorus |
Go, gen’rous, pious Youth, |
Go, gen’rous, pious youth, |
May all the Pow’rs above |
May all the pow’rs above |
Reward thy virtuous Love, |
Reward thy virtuous love, |
Thy Conſtancy and Truth; |
Thy constancy and truth; |
With Theodora’s Charms, |
With Theodora’s charms, |
Free from theſe dire Alarms: |
Free from these dire alarms: |
Or crown you with the Bleſt, |
Or crown you with the Blest, |
In Glory, Peace, and Reſt. |
In glory, peace, and rest. |
May Robertson
