First Line: Give way, and be ye ravisht by the sun
Last Line: And as he shuts, close up to maids again.
Subject(s): Flowers; Marigolds


Give way, and be ye ravisht by the Sun,
(And hang the head when as the Act is done)
Spread as He spreads; wax lesse as He do's wane;
And as He shuts, close up to Maids again.
