Orianæs farewell.

Hark, heare you not a heauenly harmony

Hark, heare you not a heauenly harmony, Ist Ioue think you, that plaies vpon the Spheres, Heuens is not this a heauenly melody, wher Ioue himself a part in Musick beares. Now comes in a quire of Nightingales: Mark, how the Nimphs & shepherds of the dales, how all do ioyne together in the praise of Orianæs life & happy daies Then sing ye sheperds & Nimphs of Diana, In heauen liues Oriana.
