Four-Part Song.. "Softly fall the shades of evening." Glee.. "The Fisherman's 'Good Night.'".. Bishop B. V. MELVILLE R. ARMITAGE L. R. FURNEAUX H. O. YEATMAN A. K. BUTTERWORTH Lo! the day's champion, the golden sun, A maiden stood on a terrace old, And she looked across the sea, And her eyes were dim with a mist of tears, "For it's oh! but to hear his voice, And to know that he was near;" And the sea rose up with an angry wail, A knight lay on a battle-field When the fight was lost and won, And the red and gold of the banner stream'd, "For it's oh! but to hear her voice, And to know that she was near; While his life ebb'd out like the sinking sea, With no one by to hear. The knight lay dead in the morning light, When the day awoke, And the maid knelt near on the dewy grass, And the words she spoke were, "It's oh! but to hear his voice, But to hear him speak again;" Garrett But the sun went down and the weeping maid Chorus "O who will o'er the downs." .. Pearsall THE CHOIR. O who will o'er the downs so free, O who will with me ride, O who will up and follow me, To win a blooming bride? I saw her bow'r at twilight grey, And none was there to see I promis'd her to come at night, And e're the dawn of morning light, Cradle Song...."Dream, baby, dream.".... Hatton ་ W. F. ROGERS. Dream, baby, dream!...... The stars are glowing, 'Tis softly flowing. Above no tempest low'rs: Till dawn to-morrow! Who know'st not sorrow? Too soon come pains and fears; So from thy future years No sadness borrow! Dream, baby, dream!.... It saith "be calm, be sure, Unfailing, gentle, pure; Four-Part Song.." Shepherds all, and maidens fair." W. Macfarren THE CHOIR. Shepherds all, and maidens fair, And let your dogs lie loose about, From the mount, and e're day Four-Part Song.."The happiest land." SUNG BY FORMER MEMBERS OF THE CHOIR. There sat one day in quiet, By an alehouse on the Rhine, Four hale and hearty fallows, The landlord's daughter filled their cup, Then sat they all so calm and still, And spake not one rude word. |
