Matthew Prior (Мэтью Прайор)


Songs Set to Music: 1. Set by Mr. Abel


Reading ends in melancholy,
Wine breeds vices and diseases,
Wealth is but care, and love but folly,
Only friendship truly pleases.
My wealth, my books, my flask, my Molly,
Farewell all if friendship ceases.

  1. An Ode - Presented to the King, on His Majesty's Arrival in Holland, after the Queen's Death
  2. An Ode - Inscribed to the Memory of the Hon. Colonel George Villiers
  3. If Wine and Music Have the Power
  4. A Song (In vain you tell your parting lover)
  5. Seeing the Duke of Ormond's Picture, at Sir Godfrey Kneller's
