Z 628 King Arthur V, 37 Round thy coast, fair nymph of Britain. [Italian translation]

NEREID, PAN

Round thy coast, fair nymph of Britain,

For thy guard our waters flow:

Proteus all his herd admitting

On thy green to graze below:

Foreign lands thy fish are tasting;

Learn from thee luxurious fasting.

CHORUS

Round thy coast, fair nymph of Britain,

For thy guard our waters flow:

Proteus all his herd admitting

On thy green to graze below:

Foreign lands thy fish are tasting;

Learn from thee luxurious fasting.
