- In Stiller Nacht, No. 42
In stiller Nacht, zur ersten Wacht,
ein Stimm' begunnt zu klagen,
der nächt'ge Wind hat süß und lind
zu mir den Klang getragen.
Von herben Leid und Traurigkeit
ist mir das Herz zerflossen,
die Blümelein, mit Tränen rein
hab' ich sie all' begossen.
- Haendel. Giulio Cesare in Egitto. Finale.
Goda pur or l´Egitto
in piu tranquillo stato la prima liberta.
Cesare brama dall´uno all´altro polo
ch´il gran nome roman spanda la fama.

la bella gioia ed il piacer.
- I am a poor wayfaring stranger
I'm just a poor wayfaring stranger
trav'ling through this world of woe.
there's no sickness, toil nor danger
In that bright world to which I go.
I'm going there to meet my father
I'm going there no more to roam;
I am just going over Jordan
I am just going over home.

- The Death of Queen Jane

- The Three Ravens
There were three ravens sat on a tree
Down-a-down, Hey! Down-a-down,
And they were black as they might be, with a down
The one of them said to his mate:
";What shall we for our breakfast take?";
With a down, derry derry derry down, down
Down in yonder green field,
- The Wraggle-Taggle Gypsies
There were three gypsies a come to my door
And downstairs ran this lady, O!
One sang high and another sang low
And the other sang bonny, bonny, Biscay, O!
Then she pulled off her silk finished gown
And put on hose of leather, O!
The ragged, ragged, rags about our door
- Thomas Campion - My love hath vow'd
My loue hath vowd hee will forsake mee,
And I am alreadie sped.
Far other promise he did make me
When he had my maidenhead.
If such danger be in playing,
And sport must to earnest turne,
I will go no more a-maying.
