He Aglai a Aglai a | B |
Sweet awaken and be glad | C |
She Who is this that calls Aglaia | D |
Is it thou my dearest lad | C |
He 'Tis Arion 'tis Arion | E |
Who calls thee from sleep | F |
From slumber who bids thee | G |
To follow and number | H |
His kids and his sheep | F |
She Nay leave to entreat me | G |
If mother should spy on | E |
Us twain she would beat me | G |
He Then come my love come | I |
And hide with Arion | E |
Where green woods are dumb | I |
- | |
She Ar i on Ar i on | E |
Closer list I am afraid | J |

He Whisper then thy love Arion | E |
From thy window lily maid | J |

SONG | A |
- | |
Sparrow of Love so sharp to peck | A |
Arrow of Love I bare my neck | A |
Down to the bosom See no fleck | A |
- | |
Of blood I have never a wound I go | A |
Forth to the greenwood Yet heigh ho | A |
What 'neath my girdle flutters so | A |
- | |
'Tis not a bird and yet hath wings | L |
'Tis not an arrow yet it stings | L |
While in the wound it nests and sings | L |
Heigh ho | A |
- | |
He Of Arion of Arion | E |
That wound thou shalt learn | E |
What nothings 'tis made of | M |
And soft pretty soothings | L |
In shade of the fern | E |
- | |
She When maids have a mind to | N |
Man's word they rely on | E |
Old warning are blind to | N |
I come then I come | I |
To walk with Arion | E |
Where green woods are dumb | I |
- | |

II | - |
- | |
- | |
He Dear my love and O my love | M |
And O my love so lately | G |
Did we wander yonder grove | O |
And sit awhile sedately | G |
For either you did there conclude | P |
To do at length as I did | Q |
Or passion's fashion's turn'd a prude | P |
And troth's an oath derided | Q |
- | |
She Yea my love and nay my love | M |
And ask me not to tell love | M |
While I delay'd an idle day | R |
What 'twixt us there befell love | M |
Yet either I did sit beside | S |
And do at length as you did | Q |
Or my delight is lightly by | - |
An idle lie deluded | Q |
