[Vpon my lap my Soueraigne sits]
Vpon my lap my Soueraigne sits,
and sucks vpon my Brest,
Meane time his Loue mayntaines my life,
and giues my sense her rest,
Sing lullaby, my little Boye,
Sing lullaby, mine onely Ioy.

Meane time his Loue mayntaines my life,
and giues my sense her rest,
Sing lullaby, my little Boye,
Sing lullaby, mine onely Ioy.

When thou hast taken thy repast,
Repose (my Babe) on me:
So may thy Mother and thy nurse,
Thy Cradle also be.
Sing lullaby my little Boy,
Sing lullaby mine onely ioy.
Repose (my Babe) on me:
So may thy Mother and thy nurse,

Sing lullaby my little Boy,
Sing lullaby mine onely ioy.
I grieue that duty doth not worke
All what my wishing would:
Because I would not be to thee,
But in the best I should.
Sing lullaby,
All what my wishing would:
Because I would not be to thee,
But in the best I should.
Sing lullaby,
Yet as I am, and as I may,
I must and will be thine:
Though all too little for thy selfe,
Vouchsafing to be mine.
Sing lullaby my little Boy,
Sing lullaby mine onely Ioy.

Though all too little for thy selfe,
Vouchsafing to be mine.
Sing lullaby my little Boy,
