Other Titles Songs. Selections Description First published in 1788 under title: Seven songs for the harpsichord or piano forte. --- Facsimile of letter from George Washington to Francis Hopkinson. --- "The book of songs bearing the title seven songs for the harpsichord or forte piano, which Francis Hopkinson sent to George Washington, actually contained eight songs. A foot-note appended to "The traveller benighted" explained the discrepancy thus: "N. B. This eighth song was added after the title page was engraved." --- Come, fair Rosina, come away -- My love is gone to sea -- Beneath a weeping willow's shade -- Enraptured I gaze -- See, down Maria's blushing cheek -- O'er the hills far away -- My generous heart disdains -- The traveller benighted.
