Song
5.
To
you
great
King
and
Queene
,
whose
smile
,
Doth
scatter
blessings
through
this
I
le
,
To
make
it
best
And
wonder
of
the
rest
,
We
pay
the
duty
of
our
birth
,
Proud
to
waite
vpon
that
Earth
Whereon
you
moue
,
Which
shall
be
nam'd
And
by
your
chast
embraces
fam'd
,
The
Paradise
of
loue
,
Irene
plant
thy
Olives
here
,
Thus
warm'd
,
at
once
,
they
le
bloome
and
beare
Eunomia
pay
thy
light
,
While
Diche
,
covetous
to
stay
,
Shall
throw
her
silver
Wings
away
,
To
dwell
within
your
sight
.
The
Scene
is
changed
,
and
the
Masquers
appeare
setting
on
the
ascent
of
an
Hill
,
cut
out
like
the
degrees
of
a
Theater
,
and
ouer
them
a
delicious
Arbor
with
termes
of
young
Men
their
Armes
converted
into
Scrowles
,
and
under
their
wasts
a
foliage
with
other
caruings
to
cover
the
ioyning
of
the
terme
from
the
naked
,
all
fained
of
Siluer
,
these
bore
up
an
Architraue
,
from
which
was
raised
a
light
covering
arched
,
and
interwoven
with
Branches
through
which
the
Sky
beyond
was
seene
.
The
Masquers
were
sixteene
in
number
,
the
sonnes
of
Peace
Law
and
Iustice
,
who
setting
in
a
gracious
but
not
set
forme
,
every
part
of
the
seates
made
a
various
Composition
,
but
all
together
tending
to
a
Piramidall
figure
.
Their
habits
was
mixt
,
betweene
the
ancient
and
moderne
,
their
bodies
Carnation
,
the
shoulders
trimd
with
Knots
of
pure
silver
,
and
scallops
of
White
and
Carnation
,
vnder
them
the
Labels
of
the
same
,
the
under-sleeves
white
,
and
a
puft
sleeve
full
of
gathering
,
falling
downe
to
the
elbow
,
about
their
waste
was
a
small
scallop
,
and
a
slender
Girdle
,
their
vnder
Bases
were
Carnation
and
White
,
with
Labels
as
at
their
shoulders
,
and
all
this
in
every
part
was
richly
Embroydered
with
pure
silver
:
their
Hats
Carnation
low
croun'd
,
the
brimme
double
,
and
cut
into
severall
quarters
lined
with
white
,
and
all
ouer
richly
Embroydered
,
as
the
rest
,
about
their
Hats
were
wreathes
of
Olive
,
and
plumes
of
white
Feathers
,
with
severall
falls
,
the
longest
toward
the
backe
;
their
long
stockings
were
white
,
with
white
shooes
and
Roses
.
Beneath
these
a
Genius
or
Angelicall
person
,
with
wings
,
of
seuerall
coloured
feathers
,
a
carnation
Robe
tuck'd
up
,
yellow
long
haire
bound
with
a
siluer
Coronet
,
a
small
white
Rod
in
his
hand
,
white
Buskins
,
who
descending
to
the
Stage
speaketh
,
Gen.
No
forraigne
persons
I
make
knowne
,
But
here
present
you
with
your
owne
,
The
Children
of
your
Raigne
,
not
blood
,
Of
age
,
when
they
are
vnderstood
.
Not
seene
by
faction
or
Owles
sight
,
Whose
trouble
is
the
clearest
light
,
But
treasures
to
their
eye
,
and
eare
,
That
loue
good
for
it selfe
,
not
feare
.
Oh
smile
on
what
your selues
have
made
,
These
haue
no
forme
,
no
sunne
,
no
shade
,
But
what
your
vertue
doth
create
,
Exalted
by
your
glorious
fate
,
Thei
'le
towre
to
heaven
,
next
which
,
they
know
,
And
wish
no
blessednesse
but
you
.
The
Masquers
moue
.
That
very
looke
into
each
eye
Hath
shot
a
soule
,
I
saw
it
flie
.
Descend
,
move
nimbly
,
and
advance
,
Your
ioyfull
tribute
in
a
dance
.
Here
with
loud
Musicke
,
the
Masquers
descend
and
dance
their
entry
to
the
Violins
,
which
ended
,
they
retire
to
the
Scene
,
and
then
the
Howers
and
Chori
againe
move
toward
the
State
and
sing
.
Song
6.
They
that
were
never
happy
Howers
Till
now
,
returne
to
thanke
the
powers
that
made
them
so
,
The
Ilands
doth
reioyce
,
And
all
her
waues
are
Ecco
to
our
voyce
,
Which
in
no
ages
past
,
hath
knowne
such
treasures
of
her
owne
.
Live
royall
pare
,
awd
when
Your
sands
are
spent
with
Heavens
and
Your
consent
,
Though
late
,
from
Your
high
Bowers
,
Looke
downe
on
what
was
Yours
,
For
till
old
time
his
glasse
hath
hurl'd
And
lost
it
in
the
ashes
of
the
world
,
We
prophesie
,
you
shall
be
read
and
seene
,
In
every
Branch
,
a
King
or
Queene

The
song
ended
,
and
the
Musitians
returned
,
the
Masquers
dance
their
maine
dance
,
after
which
they
againe
retire
to
the
Scene
,
at
which
they
no
sooner
arrive
,
but
there
is
heard
a
great
noyse
,
and
confusion
of
voyces
within
,
some
crying
,
they
will
come
in

others
knocke'em
downe

call
the

of

then
a

as
if
there
were
some
danger
by
some

They

off
cleanely
,
and
some
body
will
thinke
,
this
was
meant
for
an
Antimasque
.
They
being
gone
,
the
Masquers
are
encouraged
by
a
Song
,
to
their
Revells
with
the
Ladies
.
Song
7.
Why
doe
you
dwell
so
long
in
clouds
And
smother
your
best
graces
,
't
is
time
to
cast
away
those
shrouds
And
cleere
your
manly
faces
.
Doe
not
behave
your selues
like
Spies
,
Vpon
the
Ladies
here
,
On
even
termes
goe
meete
their
eyes
,
Beauty
and
love
shine
there
.
You
tread
dull
measures
thus
alone
,
Not
satisfie
delight
,
Goe
kisse
their
hands
,
and
make
your
owne
With
every
touch
more
white
.
The
Revels
being
past
,
the
Scene
is
changed
into
a
plaine
Champion
Country
which
terminates
with
the
Horizon
,
and
above
a
darkish
Skie
,
with
dusky
clouds
,
through
which
appeared
the
new
Moone
,
but
with
a
faint
light
by
the
approach
of
the
morning
;
from
the
furthest
part
of
this
ground
,
arose
by
little
and
little
a
great
vapour
which
being
come
about
the
middle
of
the
Scene
,
it
slackens
its
motion
,
and
begins
to
fall
downeward
to
the
earth
from
whence
it
came
:
and
out
of
this
rose
another
cloud
of
a
strange
shape
,
and
colour
,
on
which
sate
a
young
Maide
,
with
a
dimme
Torch
in
her
hand
,
her
face
was
an
Olive-colour
,
so
was
her
armes
and
breast
,
on
her
head
a
curious
dressing
,
and
about
her
necke
a
string
of
great
Pearle
,
her
garment
was
transparent
,
the
ground
darke
Blue
,
and
sprinkled
with
siluer
Spangles
,
her
Buskins
white
,
trim'd
with
Gold
:
by
these
markes
she
was
knowne
to
be
the
forerunner
of
the
morning
,
called
by
the
Ancients
Amphiluche
,
and
is
that
glimps
of
light
,
which
is
seene
when
the
night
is
past
,
and
the
day
not
yet
appearing
.
Song
8.
Am.
In
envy
to
the
night
,
That
keepes
such
Revels
here
,
With
my
vnwelcome
light
,
Thus
I
invade
her
s●●eare
.
Proclayming
warres
To
Cynthia
▪
and
all
her
starres
,
That
like
proud
Spangles
dresse
her
azure
Tresse
.
Because
I
cannot
be
a
guest
,
I
rise
●o
shame
the
Moone
,
and
put
out
both
her
eyes
.
Amphiluche
ascending
,
the
Masquers
are
called
from
their
Reuels
by
other
voyces
.
Song
9.

Come
away
,
away
,
away
,
See
the
dawning
of
the
day
,
Risen
from
the
murmuring
streames
,
Some
starres
shew
with
sickly
beames
,
What
stocke
of
flame
they
are
allow'd
,
Each
retiring
to
a
Cloud
,
Bid
your
active
sports
adieu
,
The
morning
else
will
blush
for
you
.
2
Yee
feather-footed
howers
runne
To
dresse
the
Chariot
of
the
Sunne
,
Harnesse
the
Steeds
,
it
quickly
will
Be
time
to
mount
the
Easterne
hill
.

The
lights
grow
pale
with
modest
feares
,
Least
you
offend
those
sacred
eares
,
And
eyes
,
tbat
lent
you
all
this
grace
,
Retire
,
retire
,
to
your
owne
place
.
4
And
as
you
move
from
that
blest
Paire
,
Let
each
heart
kneele
,
and
thinke
a
Prayer
,
That
all
,
that
can
make
vp
the
glory
,
Of
good
and
great
may
fill
their
story
.
Amphiluche
hidden
in
the
Heavens
,
and
the
Masque
retired
.
The
Scene
closeth
.
And
thus
concluded
this
Masque
,
which
was
,
for
the
variety
of
the
Shewes
,
and
richnesse
of
the
Habits
,
the
most
magnificent
that
hath
beene
brought
to
Court
in
our
time
.
