Tim Mead Dull delay, in piercing anguish ( Hamor) Jephtha Handel

Recitative Hamor Happy this embassy, my charming Iphis, Which once more gives thee to my longing eyes, As Cynthia, breaking from th involving clouds On the benighted traveller. The sight Of thee, my love, drives darkness and despair. Again I live, in thy sweet smiles I live, As in thy father s everwatchful care Our wretched nation feels new life, new joy. Oh haste, and make my happiness complete Air Hamor Dull delay, in piercing anguish, Bids the faithful lover languish, While he pants for bliss in vain. Oh, with gentle smiles relieve me. Let no more false hopes deceive me, Nor vain fears inflict a pain.
