Christopher Purves - Saul: Act II, Scene II, Recitative. "Oh, Strange Vicissitude!" (David, Jonathan) lyrics

Artist: Christopher Purves

album: Handel: Saul


Oh, strange vicissitude
But yesterday
He thought me worthy of his daughter's love
Today he seeks my life
My sister Merab, by his own gift thy right
He hath bestow'd on Adriel
Oh, my prince, would that were all
It would not grieve me much
The scornful maid
(Didst thou observe?)
With such disdainful pride
Receiv'd the king's command!
But lovely Michal,
As mild as she is fair
Outstrips all praise.
