Galatea:
Cease, O cease, thou gentle youth,
Trust my constancy and truth,
Trust my truth, and pow’rs above,
The pow’rs propitious still to love!

Galatea, Acis:
The flocks shall leave the mountains,
The woods the turtle dove,
The nymphs forsake the fountains,
Ere I forsake my love!

Polyphemus:
Torture! fury! rage! despair!
I cannot, cannot bear!

Galatea, Acis:
Not show’rs to larks so pleasing,
Not sunshine to the bee,
Not sleep to toil so easing,
As these dear smiles to me.

Polyphemus:
Fly swift, thou massy ruin, fly!
Die, presumptuous Acis, die!
