by Ellis Gibbons. This is the third madrigal in the Triumphs of Oriana.
Long live fair Oriana
Hark, did you ever hear so sweet a singing?
They sing young love to waken
The nymphs unto the woods their queen are bringing
There was a note well taken!
O good! hark how joyfully 'tis dittied
A queen and song most excellently fitted
I never heard a rarer
I never saw a fairer
Then sing ye shepherds and nymphs of Diana
Long live fair Oriana.
So, Landmarks in Humanities brought me here..
