[00:05.48]And now my charms are all o'erthrown,
[00:12.43]And what strength I have's mine own;
[00:20.06]Which is most faint; now t'is true,
[00:27.94]I must here be released by you,
[00:36.37]
[00:37.83]But release me from my bands
[00:45.08]With the help of your good hands.
[00:53.07]Gentle breath of yours my sails
[01:00.81]Must fill, or else my project fails,
[01:09.19]Which was to please.
[01:14.33]
[01:15.42]Which was to please. Now I want
[01:23.79]Spirits to enforce, art to enchant;
[01:33.90]And my ending is despair,
[01:41.01]Unless I be relieved by prayer,
[01:50.05]
[01:52.60]Which pierces so that it assaults
[02:00.92]Mercy itself and frees all faults.
[02:10.07]As you from your crimes would pardon'd be,
[02:19.18]Let your indulgence set me free.
