Text Appearing Before Image:
Co $ftlU* Ye little birds that sit and sing Amidst the shady valleys,And see how Phyllis sweetly walks Within her garden alleys;Go, pretty birds, about her bower;Sing, pretty birds, she may not lowerAh me ! methinks I see her frown; Ye pretty wantons, warble. Go, tell her through your chirping bills As you by me are bidden,To her is only known by love Which from the world is hidden.(7o)
Text Appearing After Image:
Go, pretty birds, and tell her so,See that your notes strain not too low,For still methinks I see her frown;Ye pretty wantons, warble. Go, tune your voices harmony, And sing I am her lover;Strain loud and sweet, that every note With sweet content may move her.And she that hath the sweetest voice,Tell her I will not change my choice:Yet still methinks I see her frown; Ye pretty wantons, warble. Oh fly! make haste! see, see, she falls Into a pretty slumber;Sing round about her rosy bed, That waking she may wonder;Say to her tis her lover true,That sendeth love to you, to you;And when you hear her kind reply, Return with pleasant warblings. — Thomas Heywood.
