And, whylest she doth her dight,

Doe ye to her of joy and solace sing,

That all the woods may answer, and your eccho ring.

Bring with you all the Nymphes that you can heare

Both of the rivers and the forrests greene,

And of the sea that neighbours to her neare;

Al with gay girlands goodly wel beseene.

And let them also with them bring in hand

Another gay girland,

For my fayre love, of lillyes and of roses,
