3:11 Shake the cloud from off your brow
4:10 Ah! Belinda I am prest
8:16 Grief increases by concealing
8:47 When monarchs unite
9:00 Whence could so much virtue spring
10:58 Fear no danger to ensue
12:28 See our royal guest appears
13:24 Cupid only throws the dart
14:12 If not for mine for Empire's sake
14:40 Pursue thy conquest love
15:20 To the hills and the vales

18:07 Wayward sisters you that fright
20:28 Harm's our delight
20:41 The Queen of Carthage
22:54 Ho ho ho
