It is true she sang “Meet me by moonlight,” and “I’ve been roaming”; for mortals must share the fashions of their time, and none but the ancients can be always classical. But Rosamond could also sing “Black-eyed Susan” with effect, or Haydn’s canzonets, or “ Voi, che sapete ,” or “ Batti, batti ”⁠—she only wanted to know what her audience liked.
