Part 1 — "GOLDEN SLUMBERS KISS YOUR EYES"
Reading edition
From "Patient Grissel"
Golden slumbers kiss your eyes, Smiles awake you when you rise. Sleep, pretty wantons, do not cry, And I will sing a lullaby. Rock them, rock them, lullaby.
Care is heavy, therefore sleep you, You are care, and care must keep you. Sleep, pretty wantons, do not cry, And I will sing a lullaby. Rock them, rock them, lullaby.
Thomas Dekker [1570?-1641?]
