[Sit downe, & sing]
Sit downe, & sing,Amintas ioyes his little Lambs reioice,to see ye spring, ech chirping bird records a piping voice,
Sweet by ye fruits, that nature first do yeeld,
wher winters cold not long before hath kild,
Pan with his pipe resoūds his roundelaies
and Flora's name adorns with worthy praise,
each liuing thing full gladly takes the spring,
both Nimphes & sheppards pleasauntly do sing.
