Random Poem of the Day
2 who loues to lye with mee,
3 And turne his merrie Note,
4 vnto the sweet Birds throte:
5Come hither, come hither, come hither:
6 Heere shall he see no enemie,
7But Winter and rough Weather.
8Who doth ambition shunne,
9 and loues to liue i' th Sunne:
10 Seeking the food he eates,
11 and pleas'd with what he gets:
12Come hither, come hither, come hither,
13 Heere shall he see no enemie,
14But Winter and rough Weather.
Notes
1] The first line of this song is a popular ballad refrain. Amiens sings this song to Jacques, who responds with another stanza to the same music:
If it do come to passe, that any man turne Asse:Back to Line
Leauing his wealth and ease,
A stubborne will to please,
Ducdame, ducdame, ducdame:
Heere shall he see, grosse fooles as he,
And if he will come to me.
