36. Matin Song

—— T. Heywood

Pack, clouds, away! and wele, day!

With night we banish sorrow.

Sweet air, blow soft; mount, lark, aloft

To give my Love good-morrow!

Wings from the wind to plea her mind,

Notes from the lark I’ll borrow;

Bird, pruhy wing! nightingale, sing!

To give my Love good-morrow!

To give my Love good-morrow

Notes from them all I’ll borrow.

Wake from thy , robin red-breast!

Sing, birds, in every furrow!

And from each bill let music shrill

Give my fair Love good-morrow!

Blackbird and thrush in every bush,

Stare, li, and cocksparrow,

You pretty elves, among yourlves

Sing my fair Love good-morrow!

To give my Love good-morrow!

Sing, birds, in every furrow!
