II. In the merry month of May

In the merry merry merry month of May

In the merry merry merry month of May, in a morne by breake of day, foorth I walked by the wood side, foorth I walked, by the wood side, the wood side, wheras May was in her pride, ther I spy'd, Philliday, and Coridon, much a doe ther was god wot, he wold loue and she would not, she sayd neuer man was true, he said non was false to you: he said he said he had lou'd her long, she said loue shold haue no wrong.



III. Second part Coridon would kisse her then

Coridon would kisse her then

Coridon would kisse her then, she sayd mayds must kisse no men, till they did, for good, and all: Then she made the shepherd call, all the heauens, to witnesse truth neuer lou'd a truer youth, Thus with many a pretie oath, yea and nay, and faith & trouth, such as seely shepherds vse, when they will not loue abuse Loue which had bene long deluded, was with kisses, sweet concluded, And Philliday, with garlands gay, was made the lady, of the May.



IIII. Young Cupid a bloody war hath proclaim'd

Young Cupid: A bloody war

Young Cupid: A bloody war, young Cupid hath proclaim'd a bloody war, And vowes reuenge on all the Maiden crue, O yeeld, faire Cloris, least in that iar, thine after penance make thee rue, thy folly rue, And yet I feare her wondrous beauti's such, A thousand thousand Cupids dare not Cloris tutch, and yet I feare her wondrous beauti's such, A thousand thousand Cupids dare not Cloris tutch, they dare not Cloris tutch, they dare not Cloris tutch.



V. To bed, to bed she cals and neuer ceaseth

To bed, to bed she cals and neuer ceaseth

To bed, to bed she cals and neuer ceaseth, Which words doe pierce and grieue my hartfull sore, to bed, to bed I say, I say, my paine encreaseth, Yet ile to bed, and trouble you no more, Goodnight sweet hart, goodnight my deere, to bed I must be gone, and being there, ile muse on thee alone good night sweet hart, goodnight my deere, to bed I must bee gone, and being there, being there, and being there, and being there, Ile muse on thee alone.



VI. Oh doe not run away from mee my Iewell

Oh doe not run away from mee my Iewell, my sweet Iewel

Oh doe not run away from mee my Iewell, my sweet Iewel, thou hast cast me downe to the ground tarry till I rise, Oh thou vnkind and cruell, wilt thou away, then well I may, repent the day I loued, since so sodenly, I feele, all thy loue from mee, all thy loue from me remoued. Wilt thou away, then well I may, repent the day I loued, I loued, since so sodenly, I feele all thy loue from mee, all all thy loue from mee remoued.



VII. In an euening as I was walking

In an euening as I was walking

In an euening as I was walking, In an euening walking, faire Phillida I saw, I saw, faire Phillida I saw, Where shee was talking, with her loue Coridon, who stood (now) all sadly, and euer hee sigh'd, but look'd badly.



VIII. Alas, must I runne away

Alas, must I runne away from her that loues mee

Alas, must I runne away from her that loues mee, that loues mee, and running curse the causers of my flight, it now behoues me, yet wisedome saith, it now beehoues me, to depart from my hart, and yeeld, from my hart and yeelde, and yeelde vnto their spight to depart, from my hart, and yeeld, and yeeld to their spight.
