Duet
Il Moderato (soprano or tenor):

As steals the morn upon the night,
And melts the shades away:
So Truth does Fancy's charm dissolve,
And rising Reason puts to flight
The fumes that did the mind involve,
Restoring intellectual day.

Chorus
Thy pleasures, Moderation, give,
In them alone we truly live.
