List of choral works

Adieu! sweet love, adieu Ah me! my mistress scorns my love Ah, Cupid grant that I may never see Alas, alas! where is my love And must I needs depart then? Beauty is a lovely sweet Camilla fair tripped o'er the plain Come follow me, fair nymphs Dame Venus hence to Paphos go Dear, if you wish Down from above Down the hills Corinna trips Fair Hebe, when dame Flora meets Hark, hear you not? (Oriana's Epitaph) Have I found her Holy Lord God Almighty If Love be blind

Love would discharge the duty Merrily my love and I Music, some think, no music is The nightingale O fly not love Phyllis, farewell a 4 Phyllis, farewell a 6 Sister awake! Strange were the life Sweet Gemma Thirsis, on his fair Phyllis' breast reposing Those sweet, delightful lilies When Oriana walk'd Whither so fast Who prostrate lies Yet stay alway Your shining eyes
