Comment:
Lyrics:
(h. Purcell) This is a piece, for a soprano voice, from dido and aeneas, an opera composed by henry purcell in 1681. Jeff performed it live in his exhibition at meltdown festival, london, on july 1 1995. Thy hand, belinda, darkness shades me. On thy bosom let me rest. More I would, but death invades me. Death is now a welcome guest. When I am laid in earth, may my wrongs create No trouble in thy breast. Remember me, but ah! Forget my fate.
