Is it night? Would darkness fright us
Let us drive dull thoughts away, 
Let gay mirth and songs unite us,
'Till we see the rising day.

Fly care to the winds thus I blow thee away,
I'll drown thee in wine if thou darest to stay.

Composition:

    Set to music by Samuel Webbe (1740 - 1815), "Is it night?" [ chorus a cappella ], glee
