MASQUE AT THE MARRIAGE OF THE LORD HAYES: SONG OF THE TRANSFORMATION by THOMAS CAMPION

Poet Analysis

First Line: NIGHT AND DIANA CHARGE
Last Line: AND SO FALL, ETC.

@3Night and Diana charge,
And th' Earth obeys,
Opening large
Her secret ways,
While Apollo's charmed men
Their forms receive again.
Give gracious Phœbus honour then,
And so fall down, and rest behind the train,
Give gracious Phœbus honour then
And so fall, etc.@1
