¶Lyrics / Text

Shepherds, rise! and shake off sleep, See the blushing morn doth peep, Through your windows, while the sun To the mountaintops has run. Up! ye lazy swains, Clasp your cloaks fast, lest they yield To the bitter north-east wind. Feed your faithful dogs and pray Heaven to keep you from decay. So unfold, and then away.
