The Lady Oriana

The Lady Oriana, Was dight all in the treasures of Guïana, was dight, And on her Grace a thousand, Graces tended, And thus sang they, faire Queene of peace and plenty, The fairest Queene of twentie, Then with an Oliue wreath for peace renowned, Her virgin head they crowned, Which ceremony ended, Vnto her Grace the thousand Graces bended. Then sang the shepherds & Nymphs of Diana, Long liue faire Oriana.
