Poet Analysis

First Line: STATELY GODDESSE, DO THOU PLEASE
Last Line: OFFERD UP BY US, TO THEE.
Subject(s): JUNO (GODDESS);

Stately Goddesse, do thou please,
Who art chief at marriages,
But to dresse the Bridall-Bed,
When my Love and I shall wed:
And a Peacock proud shall be
Offerd up by us, to thee.
