[Open the dore, Whose there within?]
Open the dore, Whose there within?
The fairest of thy Mothers kin,
O come, come, come abroad,
And heere the shrill birds sing,
The Ayre with tunes that loade,
It is too soone to goe to rest,
The Sun not midway yet to West,
The day doth misse thee,
And will not part
vntill it kisse thee.
The fairest of thy Mothers kin,
O come, come, come abroad,
And heere the shrill birds sing,
The Ayre with tunes that loade,
It is too soone to goe to rest,
The Sun not midway yet to West,
The day doth misse thee,
And will not part
vntill it kisse thee.

Were I as faire as you pretend,
Yet to an vnknowne sild-seene friend
I dare not ope the dore.
To heare the sweet birds sing,
Oft proues a dangerous thing.
The Sun may run his wonted race,
And yet not gaze on my poore face,
The day may misse mee:
Therefore depart,
You shall not kisse me.
Yet to an vnknowne sild-seene friend
I dare not ope the dore.
To heare the sweet birds sing,
Oft proues a dangerous thing.
The Sun may run his wonted race,
And yet not gaze on my poore face,
The day may misse mee:
Therefore depart,
You shall not kisse me.
