Bring with you all the Nymphes that you can heare Both of the riuers and the forrests greene: And of the sea that neighbours to her neare, Al with gay girlands goodly wel beseene. And let them also with them bring in hand Another gay girland For my fayre loue of lillyes and of roses, Bound trueloue wize with a blew silke riband. And let them make great store of bridale poses, And let them eeke bring store of other flowers To deck the bridale bowers. And let the ground whereas her shall tread, For feare the stones her tender should wrong Be strewed with fragrant flowers all along, And diapred the discolored mead. Which done, doe at her dore awayt, For she will waken strayt, The whiles doe ye this vnto her sing, The woods shall to you answer and your Eccho ring.
