Diaphenia, like the daffadowndilly, | |||
White as the sun, fair as the lily, | |||
Heigh ho, how I do love thee! | |||
I do love thee as my lambs | |||
Are belovèd of their dams: | |||
How blest were I if thou would'st prove me. | |||
Diaphenia, like the spreading roses, | |||
That in thy sweets all sweets encloses, | |||
Fair sweet, how I do love thee! | |||
I do love thee as each flower | |||
Loves the sun's life-giving power; | |||
For dead, thy breath to life might move me. | |||
Diaphenia, like to all things blessèd, | |||
When all thy praises are expressèd, | |||
Dear joy, how I do love thee! | |||
As the birds do love the spring, | |||
Or the bees their careful king; | |||
Then in requite, sweet virgin, love me! | |||

Diaphenia, like the daffadowndilly,
White as the sun, fair as the lily,
Heigh ho, how I do love thee!
I do love thee as my lambs
Are belovèd of their dams:
How blest were I if thou would'st prove me.
Diaphenia, like the spreading roses,
That in thy sweets all sweets encloses,
Fair sweet, how I do love thee!
I do love thee as each flower
Loves the sun's life-giving power;
For dead, thy breath to life might move me.
Diaphenia, like to all things blessèd,
When all thy praises are expressèd,
Dear joy, how I do love thee!
As the birds do love the spring,
Or the bees their careful king;
Then in requite, sweet virgin, love me!
