At shearing-time, and yearly wakes, When Themilis his pastime makes, There thou shalt be, and be the wit, Nay, more, the feast and grace of it. On holy days, when virgins meet To dance the hayes with nimble feet ; Thou shalt come forth, and then appear The Queen of Roses for that year ; And having danced, 'bove all the best, Carr)- the garland from the rest. In wicker baskets maids shall bring To thee, my dearest shepherdling, ' The blushing apple, bashful pear, And shame-faced plum, all simper...ing there. Walk in the groves, and thou shalt find The name of Phillis in the rind Of every straight and smooth-skin tree ; Where, kissing that, I'll twice kiss thee. To thee a sheep-hook I will send, Bepranked with ribbons, to this end, This, this alluring hook might be Less for to catch a sheep than me. Thou shalt have possets, wassails fine, Not made of ale, but spiced wine ; To make thy maids and self free mirth, All sitting near the glittering hearth. Thou shalt have ribbons, roses, rino-s, (iloves, garters, stockings, shoes, and strino-s Of winning colours, that shall move " Others tu lust, but me to love.
