True Love Never Did Run Smooth

Program: Click to enlarge

Here are the full lyrics for the program, videos from the performance can be seen here

Come Unto These Yellow Sands (The Tempest, I.2, Ariel) set to John Dowland 1597 

Come unto these yellow sands
And then take hands, and then take hands,
Curtsied when you have and kissed
The wild wave whist, the wild wave whist.

Foot it featly here and there;
And sweet Sprites, the burthen bear,
Hark, hark! bow-wow, the watch Dogs bark,
Hark, hark! bow-wow, the watch Dogs bark.

Hark, hark, hark! I hear, I hear
The strain of strutting Chanticleer
Cry cock-a diddle-diddle dow,
Cry cock-a diddle-diddle dow.

Love! Lust! Longing… Loss
