Once I thought to die for love,
From Thomas Weelkes’ Madrigals, 1597
Our country-swains in the morris dance
From Giles Farnaby’s Canzonets, 1598.
Pierce did love fair Petronel
From Francis Pilkington’s First Set of Madrigals and Pastorals, 1613.
Pour forth, mine eyes, the fountains of your tears;
From Airs sung and played at Brougham Castle, 1618, by George Mason and John Earsden.
Robin is a lovely lad,
