[Cupid whispers his message.]

Virginia--
Oh Cupid! (C.) How you blush, your burning cheek
Tells plainer still than even lips can speak
Of tenderness for Paolo that glows
Within your heart, and now quite overflows.


Blushing

Fairies--
Blush of the early morning
Heralds the coming day,
Heralds the beam of sunshine
Chasing the dark away.

_Refrain_--
Blushing, blushing,
Roses of deepest dye;
Flushing, flushing
Red as the sunlit sky.

Blushes those cheeks suffusing,
Cupid's enchantments prove;
Prove that the little archer
Whispers to you of love.

[Enter Paolo.]
