'''YE GODS! WAS STREPHON'S PICTURE BLEST.'''  Scottish, Air (whole time). F Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. The first stanza to the song, from Thomson's '''Orpheus Caledonius, vol. 2''' (1733), goes:
<blockquote>
''Ye Gods! Was Strephon’s Picture blest,''<br>
''With the fair Heav’n of Chloe’s Breast,''<br>
''Move softer thou fond flutt’ring Heart,''<br>
''Oh! Gently throb,…too fierce thou art.''<br>
''Tell me thou brightest of thy kind,''<br>
''For Strephon was the Bliss design’d,''<br>
''For Strephon’s sake dear charming maid,''<br>
''Didst thou prefer his wand’ring shade.''<br>
