The Sunne the season in each thing
Reuiues new pleasures, the sweet Spring

To glad our louely Sommer Queene
Reuiues new pleasures, the sweet Spring
Hath put to flight the Winter keene:
To glad our louely Sommer Queene
The pathes where Amargana treads,
With flowrie tap'stries Flora spreads.
And Nature cloathes the ground in greene:
To glad our louely Sommer Queene.

The Groaues put on their rich aray,
With Hawthorne bloomes imbroydered gay,
And sweet perfum'd with Eglantine:
To glad our louely Sommer Queene.

The silent Riuer stayes his course,
Whilst playing on the christall sourse,
The siluer scaled fish are seene,
To glad our louely Sommer Queene.

The little birds with their lowd voyces,
In consort on the bryers beene,
To glad our louely Sommer Queene.

The vvood-Nimphs, Fawnes, and Satires trip,
And daunce the Mirtle trees betweene:

Thus bid me pray the Muses nine,
Long liue our louely Sommer Queene.
