L et May to others seem to be

I n Sense, the sweetest season;

S eptember! thou are best to me!

A nd best doth please my Reason.

B ut neither for their corn, nor wine;

E xtol I, those mild days of thine!

T hough corn and wine might praise thee;

H eaven gives thee honour more divine

A nd higher fortunes raise thee!

R enowned art thou, sweet Month! for this.
