Work Title: Acis and Galatea, HWV49b

Excerpt(s): 1. Sinfonia
2. Oh, the pleasure of the plains!
3. Ye verdant plains
4. Hush, ye pretty warbling quire!
5. Where shall I seek the charming fair?
6. Stay, shepherd, stay!
7. Shepherd, what art thou pursuing ?
8. Lo! here my love!; Love in her eyes sits playing
9. Oh! didst thou know; As when the dove
10. Happy we! What joys I feel
11. Wretched lovers!
12. I rage, I melt, I burn!
13. O ruddier than the cherry
14. Whither, fairest; Cease to beauty to be suing
15. Would you gain the tender creature
16. His hideous love provokes my rage; Love sounds th'alarm
17. Consider, fond shepherd
18. Cease, oh cease, thou gentle youth; The flocks shall leave the mountain
19. Help, Galatea! help
20. Mourn, all ye muses!
21. Must I my Acis still bemoan
22. 'Tis done; Heart, the seat of soft delight
23. Galatea, dry thy tears.
