Lyrics: William Shakespeare
Lawn as white as driven snow,
Cyprus black as e'er was crow,
Gloves as sweet as damask roses,
Masks for faces and for noses;
Bugle bracelets, necklace-amber,
Perfume for a lady's chamber,
Golden quoifs and stomachers
For my lads to give their dears.
Pins and shining toys of steel,
What maids lack from head to heel:
Come buy of me, lads buy,
Or else your lasses cry.
Lawn as white as driven snow,
Cyprus black as e'er was crow,
Gloves as sweet as damask roses,
Masks for faces and for noses;
Bugle bracelets, necklace-amber,
Perfume for a lady's chamber,
Golden quoifs and stomachers
For my lads to give their dears.
Pins and shining toys of steel,
What maids lack from head to heel:
Come buy of me, lads buy,
Or else your lasses cry.
