635 - Hark! Did ye ever hear so sweet
---------------------------------------------------------------

Hark! Did ye ever hear so sweet,
so sweet a singing?
They sing young love to waken, to waken,
The nymphs unto the woods,
their Queen are bringing.
There was a note well taken!
Hark! O good!
O most divine, O most divinely dittied:
A Queen and Song most excellent, most excellently fitted.
I never saw,
I never saw a fairer,
I never heard a rarer.

Then sung the nymphs and shepherds of Diana:
Long live fair Oriana!
