The Song between Chorister and Eccho.
Choris.
ECcho, O Eccho; thou Oracle, O Eccho, Eccho tel.
Eccho.
What shall the Eccho, Eccho tell?
Choris.
The Scholars Cap is lost, how shal't be found?
Eccho.
Charm Atlas, Charme the Caps from under ground;
By six and six, so shall the Cap be found.
descriptionPage 16
Choris.
Caps all, O Caps all, appeare at Ecchoes call,Six great, six small.
Eccho.
Here, here we rise at Ecchoes call.
Choris.
When you the Viols heare, brave Sprights appeare.
Eccho.
Sound Viols sound, for at your sound we'l venter.Roome, roome for Caps, by six and six we enter.
