- Edition notes: Transcribed and vaguely extemporised by ear, because I wanted the score myself. All mistakes are, of course, intentional. Written down a Semi, so it will be played at baroque pitch by a lazy Pianist.

English text
Lost is my quiet for ever,
Lost is life's happiest part;
Lost all my tender endeavours,
To touch an insensible heart.
But tho' my Despair is past curing,
And much undeserv'd is my fate,
I'll show by a patient enduring
My love is unmov'd as her hate.
