From the recording Samson at Home
<p>Samson plans his revenge. Emily plays the Samson's vocal line on the violin, with continuo and occasional help from Mat's flute.</p>
Lyrics
<p>Thus when the sun from’s wat’ry bed,<br />All curtain’d with a cloudy red,<br />Pillows his chin upon an orient wave;<br />The wand’ring shadows ghastly pale,<br />All troop to their infernal jail,<br />Each fetter’d ghost slips to his sev’ral grave. </p>
