| Contents | v. 2. From rosy bowers. Ah, Belinda, I am prest. Thy hand, Belinda! When I am laid in earth. What shall I do. Your awful voice. More love and more disdain. Since from my dear. Man is for the woman made. The knotting song. The Blessed Virgin's expostulation. |
| Contents | v. 3. The fatal hour. I'll sail upon the Dog Star. Silvia, now your scorn. 'Tis nature's voice. Bess of bedlam. Cease, o my sad soul. Strike the viol. Lord, what is man. Sound the trumpet. Hark! the ech'ing air. |
| Contents | v. 4. Not all my torments. O, lead me to some peaceful gloom. Sweet, be no longer sad. I attempt from love's sickness to fly. An evening hymn. There's not a swain on the plain. Nymphs and shepherds. Hark! how all things. Come all ye songsters. The Queen's epicedium. |
