To you, to you, all song of praise be due,

Onely for you the heavens forget all measure.

3 Who hath the lips where wit with fairenes raigneth,

Who womenkinde at once both decks and staineth:

To you, to you all song of praise is due,

Onely by you Cupid his crowne maintaineth.

4 Who hath the feet whose steps all sweetnes planteth,

Who els for whom Fame worthie trumpets wanteth:

To you, to you all song of praise be due,

Onely to you her scepter Venus granteth.
