Lyrics: Anon, probably the composer
Whilst that my Daphne down from the hills came walking,
The nymphs of Diana in a shade sat talking.
This shepherd's queen,
That there was unseen,
All suddenly in rushed.
Lord, how the nymphs then blushed!
And all danced round about her with this sweet cry:
Long live my lovely Daphne.
Whilst that my Daphne down from the hills came walking,
The nymphs of Diana in a shade sat talking.
This shepherd's queen,
That there was unseen,
All suddenly in rushed.
Lord, how the nymphs then blushed!
And all danced round about her with this sweet cry:
Long live my lovely Daphne.
