With wreaths of rose and laurel Lyrics & Tabs by Robert Hollingworth & I Fagliolini
With wreaths of rose and laurel
guitar chords lyrics
With leaves of rose and laurel
Withdraw yourselves, ye shepherds, from your bowers
And strew the path with flowers.
The nymphs are coming;
Sweetly the birds are chirping, the swift beasts running
As all amazed they stand still gazing
To see such bright stars blazing.
Lo, Dian bravely treading,
Her dainty daughter leading.
The powers divine to her do veil their bonnets.
Prepare yourselves to sound your pastoral sonnets.
Then sang the shepherds and nymphs of Diana:
Long live fair Oriana.
Long live fair Oriana.
