Last Line: We have no envy which sweet mirth confounds.
Subject(s): Happiness; Joy; Delight


HOW merrily we live that shepherds be;
Roundelays still we sing with merry glee;
On the pleasant downs where, as our flocks we see,
We feel no cares, we fear not fortune's frowns;
We have no envy which sweet mirth confounds.
