  • Only a sweet and virtuous soul, Like season’d timber, never gives; But though the whole world turn to coal, Then chiefly lives.

  • The text is a poem by George Herbert called "Virtue,"

    Sweet day, so cool, so calm, so bright! The bridal of the earth and sky— The dew shall weep thy fall to-night; For thou must die.

    Sweet rose, whose hue angry and brave Bids the rash gazer wipe his eye, Thy root is ever in its grave, And thou must die.

    Sweet spring, full of sweet days and roses, A box where sweets compacted lie, My music shows ye have your closes, And all must die.

    (continued...)

  • A wonderful piece, a very good ensemble (By the way: Who is it?) and a delicate recording. Thank you for this great listening pleasure!

  • Thanks very much for posting this!
