HARK! HARK! THE LARK.

Reading edition

Hark! hark! the lark at heaven’s gate sings, And Phœbus ’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! —William Shakespeare.
