¶The Nimphes meeting their May Queene, entertaine her with this Dittie,

VVIth fragrant flowers we strew the way, And make this our chiefe holy-day. For though this clime were blest of yore: Yet was it neuer proud before. O beauteous Queene of second Troy: Accept of our vnfained ioy.

Page [unnumbered]

Now th'Ayre is sweeter then sweet Balme, And Satyres dance about the Palme, Now earth with verdure newly dight, Giues perfect signes of her delight. O beauteous Queene, &c.
Now birds record new harmonie, And trees doe whistle melodie, Now euery thing that Nature breedes, Doth clad it selfe in pleasant weedes. O beauteous Queene, &c.
FINIS.

Tho. Watson.
