Lyrics Dido and Aeneas: Act 3. Thy hand, Belinda / When I am laid in earth - Henry Purcell
Thy
hand,
Belinda;
darkness
shades
me.
On
thy
bosom
let
me
rest.
More
I
would,
but
Death
invades
me;
Death
is
now
a
welcome
guest.
When
I
am
laid
in
earth,
May
my
wrongs
create
No
trouble
in
thy
breast.
Remember
me,
But,
ah,
forget
my
fate!
