It was rehearsed at Convent Garden Theatre, but never performed.
Lucy Crowe, soprano
Early Opera Company
Christian Curnyn, conductor
Gentle Morpheus, son of night,
Hither speed thy airy flight!
And his weary senses steep
In the balmy dew of sleep.
That when bright Aurora’s beams
Glad the world with golden streams,
He, like Phoebus, blithe and gay,
May re-taste the healthful day.
