Nikolaus Harnoncourt Oft she visits Lyrics
SECOND WOMAN
Oft she visits this lov'd mountain,
Oft she bathes her in this fountain;
Here Actaeon met his fate,
Pursued by his own hounds,
And after mortal wounds
Discover'd, discover'd too late.
(A Dance to entertain Aeneas by Dido's women)
AENEAS
Behold, upon my bending spear
A monster's head stands bleeding,
With tushes far exceeding
Those did Venus' huntsman tear.
DIDO
The skies are clouded, hark! how thunder
Rends the mountain oaks a sunder.
BELINDA
(Repeated by Chorus)
Haste, haste to town, this open field
No shelter from the storm can yield.
(exeunt Dido and Belinda and train)
(The Spirit of the Sorceress descends
to Aeneas in the likeness of Mercury)
