Purcell I Attempt From Love's Sickness

[WINAD6]

Lovely singing. I like the voice quality.

my choirs doing this song... we all hated it.. but now we got it downn

[LookAwaaay]

The lyrics must be:

I attempt from Love's sickness to fly in vain,

Since I am myself my own fever and pain.

No more now, fond heart, with pride no more swell,

Thou canst not raise forces enough to rebel.

I attempt from Love's sickness ...

For Love has more pow'r and less mercy than fate

To make us seek ruin and love those that hate.

I attempt from Love's sickness ...

[LookAwaaay]

Not to be nagging, but the lyrics have some bugs in it (I'm only mentioning this because it makes a difference.) A lovely recording, thanks for sharing -- and good luck for your paper, @KatieLingleMusic !

I don't blame you, the words are also wrong in some librettos on the web.

I think I would like this song a LOT more if I didn't have to write a 1-2 page paper about it :( but you've got a great voice :))
