[XX. With Angels face & brightnesse]

With Angels face & brightnesse

With Angels face & brightnesse, & orient hew, faire Oriana, faire Oriana shining, with nimble foot she tripped, o're hills & mountaines, At last in dale she rested, hard by Dianaes, fountaines This is that maiden Queene of ye Fairie land: With septer in her hand, The Faunes & Satirs dauncing, did shew their nimble lightnes, & brought their baskets full of herbs & flowers. Then sang ye shepherds & Nymphs of Diana, Long liue faire Oriana.
