PRESENTATION OUTLINE
The passionate Shepherd To His Love
Come live with me and be my love
And we will all the pleasures prove
That valleys, groves, hills, and fields
Woods, or steepy mountains yield.
And we will sit upon the rocks,
Seeing the shepherds feed their flocks,
By shallow rivers to whose falls
Melodious birds sing madrigals.
And i will make thee beds of roses
And a thousand fragrant posies,
A cap of flowers, and a kirtle
Embroidered with leaves of myrtle;
A gown made of the finest wool
Which from our pretty lambs pull;
Fair lined slippers for the cold,
With buckles of the finest gold;
A belt of straw and ivy buds.
With coral clasps and amber studs:
And if these pleasures may thee move
Come live with me and be my love.
The shepherds' swains shall dance and sing
For thy delight each May morning:
If these delights thy mind may move
Then live with me and be my love.
