[I. With Angels face and brightnesse]

With Angels face and brightnesse

With Angels face and brightnesse, & orient hew, faire Oriana shining, with nimble foote she tripped, o're hils, and mountaines, at last in dale she rested: this is that maiden Queene of the Fayrie land, with scepter in her hand, the Faunes and Satires dauncing, did shew their nimble lightnes, Faire Nais and the Nimphs did leaue their bowers, & brought their baskets full of hearbs & flowers. Thē sang ye sheperds & Nimphs of Diana, Lōg liue, Lōg liue faire Oriana.
