PURCELL'S song comes from a play by Shadwoll, The Libertine, one of the many for which he wrote incidental music. The words are a jolly invitation to lads and lasses to com* away to sport and play, for this is Flora's holiday.'
THE lovely Handel air, from the secular Oratorio Semele, is sung by Semelo herself, who, on awaking, wishes that her lover, Jupiter, of whom she has been dreaming, were with her,
MOZART'S air is a delicious little love-song, sung by the love-lorn page Cherubino who worships his mistress.with dog-like fidelity In the Countess' presence, her maid Susanna twits Cherubino about a song he has written to his mistress. The Countess bids him sing it, to
. guitar accompaniment. So the page sings this sweet, rather plaintive song of the pangs of love.
