These labours past from Jephtha (HWV70) Oh peerless maid, Our limpid streams from Joshua (HWV64) Great victor, at your feet I bow from Beshazzar (HWV61) When thou art nigh, To my chaste Susanna's praise from Susanna (HWV66) To thee, thou glorious son of worth, Streams of pleasure ever flowing from Theodora (HWV 68) Welcome as the dawn of day, Ev'ry joy that wisdom knows from Solomon (HWV 67) Kind health descends from Eternal source of light divine (Ode for the birthday of Queen Anne, HWV 74) O fairest of ten thousand fair from Saul (HWV 53) Where do thy ardours raise me! and Smiling freedom, lovely guest from Deborah (HWV 51) Hail wedded love from Alexander Balus (HWV 65) Let's imitate her notes above from Alexander's feast or The power of musick (HWV 75) Who calls my parting soul from Esther (HWV 50b).
