As sweet a voice as have the nightingales!

Feed me this herd! and if the Shepherd's lad

Menalcas comes, let him have all the dales!"

Menalcas.

"'Tis ever Spring; there meads are ever gay;

There strout the bags; there sheep are fatly fed,

When Daphne comes! Go she away;

Then both the Shepherd there, and grass are dead."

Daphnis.
