A PASTORAL ELEGY,
Set to Music by Signora Carolina,
Jonathan. Isaac.
[1]
Isaac. (Allegro:)
O wherefore, brother Jonathan,
So doleful are your features?
Say, are you rather poorly, man,
Or have you lost your creatures?
[2]
Jonathan. (Piano)
Ah, wou'd to Heaven that were all!
But worse I have to mention,
For Gates, our gallant general
Has made a new convention.
. . .  [5 more verses, signed] Isaac, Jonathan
