From "A First Book of Glees, Canons, etc.
Compos'd by J.C.Pring Mus. Bac. Oxon, Organist of St Botolph Aldersgate"
Lyrics: James Thomson
Come, gentle God of soft desire,
Come and possess this happy breast,
Not fury-like with flames of fire,
Nor frantic folly's wildness dressed;
O, come with goodness in thy train,
With peace and pleasure void of storm,
And wouldst thou me for ever gain,
Put on Amanda's winning form.
Come, gentle God of soft desire,
Come and possess this happy breast,
Not fury-like with flames of fire,
Nor frantic folly's wildness dressed;
O, come with goodness in thy train,
With peace and pleasure void of storm,
And wouldst thou me for ever gain,
Put on Amanda's winning form.
