Based on the lament by Aspasia in "The Maid's Tragedy" by Beaumont and Fletcher
sung by the dwsChorale (a one-man choir)
Lay a garland on her hearse
of dismal yew.
Maidens, willow branches wear,
say she died true.
Her love was false, but she was firm
Upon her buried body lie
lightly, thou gentle earth.
My dear friend. You are super talented. This made my weekend right hear. I hope you had a great weekend and I would like to wish you a great start to your new week tomorrow. God bless you and your family.
