Página 6 - How many things are there which a man cannot, with any face, or comeliness, say or do himself?

Página 330 - Now the bright morning star, day's harbinger, Comes dancing from the east, and leads with her The flowery May, who from her green lap throws The yellow cowslip, and the pale primrose.

Thus we salute thee with our early song, And welcome thee, and wish thee long.
