King Arthur, Z. 628 (Suckling/McCreesh Edition), Act IV: Song – Two Daughters of This Aged Stream Are We (Two Sirens)
Henry Purcell
Two daughters of this aged stream are we
And both our sea-green locks have comb'd for ye
Come bathe with us an hour or two
Come naked in, for we are so
What danger from a naked foe?
Come bathe with us, come bathe, and share
What pleasures in the floods appear
We'll beat the waters till they bound
And circle round, and circle round
