Song: We lived one and twenty years as man and wife...

by Charles Jenner . A Catch for Four voices , in C major

Text:

We lived one and twenty years as man and wife together,
I could not keep her longer here, sheā€™s gone I know not whither,
but I suppose she soared above, for in the late great thunder
methought I heard her very voice rending the clouds asunder.
