Youth like summer brave,

Age like winter bare.

Youth is full of sport,

Age's breath is short;

Youth is nimble, Age is lame;

Youth is hot and bold,

Age is weak and cold;

Youth is wild, and Age is tame.

Age, I do abhor thee;

Youth, I do adore thee ;

O, my Love, my Love is young!

Age, I do defy thee:

O, sweet shepherd, hie thee !

For methinks thou stay'st too long.

?by William Shakespeare

$7. Thyltida's Love-Call

Phyllida. /CORYDON, arise, my Corydon !

^* Titan shineth clear. Corydon. Who is it that calleth Corydon?

Who is it that I hear ? Phyl Phyllida, thy true love, calleth thee, Arise then, arise then,

Arise and keep thy flock with me ! Cor. Phyllida, my true love, is it she ? I come then, I come then,

I come and keep my flock with thee.

Phyl. Here are cherries ripe for my Corydon;

Eat them for my sake. Cor. Here's my oaten pipe, my lovely one, Sport for thee to make.
