Subject(s): Spring


SALUTE for me the fellowe-ship
Nowe met together joyouslie,
And saye howe gladlye I would be
Beside them where the flagons dip;
But old Age hath me in his grip,
And dried the sap of youth in me:
Salute for me the fellowe-ship
Nowe met together joyouslie.
Tyme was I loved a wench's lip,
And all my veins did dance with glee
That nowe be taut with miserie,
Soe tightly held in ague's grip:
Salute for me the fellowe-ship.
