English text
Since the toils and the hazards of War's at an end,
the pleasures of Love should succeed 'em,
the fair should present what the Senators send,
and compleat what they've decreed 'em.
With Dances and Songs,
with Tambours and Flutes,
let the Maids show their Joy as they meet 'em;
with Cimbals and Harps,
with Viols and Lutes
let the Husbands and true Lovers greet 'em.
