| When thy fallen stars appear | B |

| Glad pale Cynthian wine I sip | F |
| Breathed the flow'ry leaves among | G |
| Draughts delicious wet my lip | F |
| Drown'd in nectar drunk my song | H |
| While tuned to Philomel the lay | C |
| Beneath O maiden Moon thy ray | C |
| - | |
| Dew that od'rous ointment yields | I |
| Sweets that western winds disclose | J |
| Bathing spring's more purpled fields | I |
| Soft 's the band that winds the rose | J |
| While o'er thy myrtled lawns I stray | C |
| Beneath O maiden Moon thy ray | C |
