Dido and Aeneas, Z. 626:Act I: Fear no danger to ensue (Belinda, 2nd Woman and Chorus)

Music: Henry Purcell BELINDA AND SECOND WOMAN Fear no danger to ensue, The Hero loves as well as you, Fear no danger to ensue, The Hero loves as well as you, Ever gentle, ever smiling, And the cares of life beguiling, Fear no danger to ensue, The Hero loves as well as you, Cupid strew your path with flowers Gather'd from Elysian bowers. Fear no danger to ensue, The Hero loves as well as you, (repeated by Chorus) Fear no danger to ensue, The Hero loves as well as you, Fear no danger to ensue, The Hero loves as well as you, Ever gentle, ever smiling, And the cares of life beguiling, Fear no danger to ensue, The Hero loves as well as you, Cupid strew your path with flowers Gather'd from Elysian bowers. Fear no danger to ensue, The Hero loves as well as you.
