Aubade

by William Shakespeare

Hark! hark! the lark at heaven's gate sings,   And Phoebus 'gins arise, His steeds to water at those springs   On chaliced flowers that lies; And winking Mary-buds begin   To ope their golden eyes: With everything that pretty bin,   My lady sweet, arise!     Arise, arise!
