Of Lichfield little is known, except that the dedication of his sole printed set of madrigals (from which this item comes) shows him to have been in the service of Lady Cheyney of Toddington, Beds.
Lyrics: Anon, probably the composer

All ye that sleep in pleasure,
Awake; and lose not time's fair treasure:
For time doth never cease
His restless turning.
Oh, I repent the time I spent
In love's sweet burning.
