The solo soprano part is often sung by a mezzo-soprano.
The score (p.6, fig.[3]) implies a 2nd oboe part distinct from Eh or bass oboe; this is believed to be an engraving error.

"A song of the setting sun"
"Cease smiling, Dear!"
"Pale amber sunlight falls"
"Exceeding sorrow consumeth my sad heart!"
"By the sad waters of separation"
"See how the trees and the osiers lithe"
"I was not sorrowful, I could not weep"
"They are not long, the weeping and the laughter"
