See the Flags and Streamers Curling Lyrics

SORCERESS
See the flags and streamers curling,
Anchors weighing, sails unfurling.
FIRST WITCH
Phoebus' pale deluding beams
Gliding o'er deceitful streams.

SECOND WITCH
Our plot has took, the Queen's forsook.
TWO WITCHES
Elissa's ruin'd, ho, ho!
Our plot has took, the Queen's forsook, ho, ho!

SORCERESS
Our next motion must be to storm her lover on the ocean!
From the ruins of others our pleasures we borrow:
Elissa bleeds tonight, and Carthage flames tomorrow.
CHORUS
Destruction's our delight, delight our greatest sorrow!
Elissa bleeds tonight, and Carthage flames tomorrow. Ho ho!
