¶Liedtext

The shepherd Claius, seeing His lovely Daphne flying, He wept with deep lamenting, His poor, poor heart tormenting. But oh, the shepherd, when they met together, To live or die for joy he knew not whether. First with looks he lived and died, Then with sighs her faith he tried; After sighs he sent his tears, All to shew his trembling tears, At last he said: "A truer heart was never. Oh pity Daphne; disdain me not for ever".
