By whose tough labor and rough hands

We rip up first, then reap our lands,

Crown'd with the ears of corn, now come,

And to the pipe sing harvest-home.

Come forth, my lord, and see the cart,

Drest up with all the country art.

See here a mawkin, there a sheet

As spotless pure as it is sweet:

The horses, mares, and frisking fillies

Clad all in linen, white as lilies;
