Note Words by Thomas Broughton. Cf. Grove, 5th edition
Contents Act I. Overture -- See with what sad dejection -- No longer, fate, relentless frown -- O Hercules -- The world, when day's career is run -- Princess! be conforted -- I feel the god -- He said the sacred fury -- There, in myrtle shades reclined -- Despair not -- Where congeal'd the northern streams -- Oh, filial piety -- Banish your fears -- Begone my fears -- A train of captives -- The smiling hours -- Let none despair -- Ye faithful followers -- Daughter of gods -- March -- Thanks to the pow'rs above -- My father -- Now farewell, arms -- The god of battle -- Crown with festal pomp.
Act II. Sinfonia -- Why was I born a princess -- How blest the maid -- It must be so -- When beauty sorrow's liv'ry wears -- Whence this unjust suspicion -- Ah think what ills -- It is too sure -- As stars that rise and disappear -- In vain you strive -- Jealousy -- She knows my passion -- Banish love from my breast -- Forgive a passion -- From celestial seats descending -- Wanton god of am'rous fires -- Yes, I congratulate your titles -- Alcides' name in latest story -- Oh, glorious pattern of heroic deeds -- Resign thy club -- You are decieved -- Cease, ruler of the day -- Some kinder pow'r inspire me -- Constant lovers, never roving -- But see, the princess Iole -- Joys of freedom -- Father of Hercules -- Love and hymen.
Act III. Sinfonia -- Ye sons of Trachin -- Oh, scene of unexampled woe -- Oh, fatal jealousy -- Tyrants now no more shall dread -- Oh, Jove! what land is this? -- Great Jove! relieve his pains -- Let not fame the tidings spread -- Where shall I fly? -- Lo! the fair, fatal cause of all this ruin -- My breast with tender pity swells -- Princess, rejoice -- He, who for Atlas -- Words are too faint -- O prince whose virtues all admire -- Ye sons of freedom -- to him your gratitude.
