Purcell: Sophonisba, Z. 590: No. 1, Song. "Beneath a Poplar's Shadow"

de Henry Purcell

What power art thou
Who from below
Hast made me rise
Unwillingly and slow
From beds of everlasting snow

See'st thou not how stiff
And wondrous old
Far unfit to bear the bitter cold

I can scarcely move
Or draw my breath
I can scarcely move
Or draw my breath

Let me, let me
Let me, let me
Freeze again
Let me, let me
Freeze again to death
