Song: Slow, Slow, Fresh Fount

Brand new world premiere, especially for musescore.org. Perhaps Ben Jonson's most famous lyric, popularized by the approbation of Samuel Johnson. My version is composed for a rather high soprano, since it's supposed to be sung by a nymph (actually, Echo mourning Narcissus.) I wondered if I should have put in more rests for breathing, but I'm hoping a good singer will be able to sneak the necessary breaths in.
