¶Liedtext

Let not rage, thy bosom firing, Pity's gentle claim remove; Spare a heart that's just expiring, Forced by duty, racked by love. Each ungentle thought suspending, Judge of mine by thy soft breast; Nor with rancour never-ending, Heap fresh sorrows on th' opprest. Heav'n, that ev'ry joy has crossed, Ne'er my wretched state can mend. I at once have lost Father, brother, lover, friend.
