The silver swan who, living, had no note,
when death approached, unlocked her silent throat.
Leaning her breast against the reedy shore,
thus sung her first and last, and sung no more:
"Farewell all joys,
O death come close [mine]1 eyes.
More geese than swans now live,
more fools than wise."
This exquisite madrigal with one of the most plaintive texts in the English language is beautifully done here. .. Thanks for posting.
