Lyrics: Anon
Sweet muse, who lov'st the virgin spring,
Hither thy sunny flow'rets bring,
And let thy richest chaplet shed
Its fragrance round my Delia's head.
O string the Lesbian lyre again;
Let all the sisters raise the strain
And consecrate to deathless fame
My loved, my Delia's honour'd name.
Sweet muse, who lov'st the virgin spring,
Hither thy sunny flow'rets bring,
And let thy richest chaplet shed
Its fragrance round my Delia's head.
O string the Lesbian lyre again;
Let all the sisters raise the strain
And consecrate to deathless fame
My loved, my Delia's honour'd name.
