Januarie gloga Prime Colin Cloute	A
	-
A Shepeheards boye no better doe him call	B
when Winters wastful spight was almost spent	A
All in a sunneshine day as did befall	B
Led forth his flock that had been long ypent	A
So faynt they woxe and feeble in the folde	A
That now vnnethes their feete could them vphold	A
	-
All as the Sheepe such was the shepeheards looke	C
For pale and wanne he was alas the while	D
May seeme he lovd or els some care he tooke	C
Well couth he tune his pipe and frame his stile	D
Tho to a hill his faynting flocke he ledde	A
And thus him playnd the while his shepe there fedde	A
	-
Ye gods of loue that pitie louers payne	E
if any gods the paine of louers pitie	A
Looke from aboue where you in ioyes remaine	E
And bowe your eares vnto my doleful dittie	A
And Pan thou shepheards God that once didst loue	D
Pitie the paines that thou thy selfe didst proue	F
	-
Thou barrein ground whome winters wrath hath wasted	A
Art made a myrrhour to behold my plight	A
Whilome thy fresh spring flowrd and after hasted	A
Thy sommer prowde with Daffadillies dight	A
And now is come thy wynters stormy state	A
Thy mantle mard wherein thou mas kedst late	A
	-
Such rage as winters reigneth in my heart	A
My life bloud friesing wtih vnkindly cold	A
Such stormy stoures do breede my balefull smarte	A
As if my yeare were wast and woxen old	A
And yet alas but now my spring begonne	E
And yet alas yt is already donne	E
	-
You naked trees whose shady leaves are lost	A
Wherein the byrds were wont to build their bowre	F
And now are clothd with mosse and hoary frost	A
Instede of bloosmes wherwith your buds did flowre	F
I see your teares that from your boughes doe raine	E
Whose drops in drery ysicles remaine	E
	-
All so my lustfull leafe is drye and sere	F
My timely buds with wayling all are wasted	A
The blossome which my braunch of youth did beare	F
With breathed sighes is blowne away blasted	A
And from mine eyes the drizling teares descend	A
As on your boughes the ysicles depend	A
	-
Thou feeble flocke whose fleece is rough and rent	A
Whose knees are weak through fast and evill fare	F
Mayst witnesse well by thy ill gouernement	A
Thy maysters mind is ouercome with care	F
Thou weak I wanne thou leabe I quite forlorne	E
With mourning pyne I you with pyning mourne	E
	-
A thousand sithes I curse that carefull hower	F
Wherein I longd the neighbour towne to see	G
And eke tenne thousand sithes I blesse the stoure	F
Wherein I sawe so fayre a sight as shee	H
Yet all for naught snch such sight hath bred my bane	E
Ah God that loue should breede both ioy and payne	E
	-
It is not Hobbinol wherefore I plaine	E
Albee my loue he seeke with dayly suit	A
His clownish gifts and curtsies I disdaine	E
His kiddes his cracknelles and his early fruit	A
Ah foolish Hobbinol thy gyfts bene vayne	E
Colin them gives to Rosalind againe	E
	-
I loue thilke lasse alas why doe I loue	D
And am forlorne alas why am I lorne	E
Shee deignes not my good will but doth reproue	F
And of my rurall musick holdeth scorne	E
Shepheards deuise she hateth as the snake	C
And laughes the songes that Colin Clout doth make	C
	-
Wherefore my pype albee rude Pan thou please	I
Yet for thou pleasest not where most I would	A
And thou vnlucky Muse that wontst to ease	I
My musing mynd yet canst not when thou should	A
Both pype and Muse shall sore the while abye	J
So broke his oaten pype and downe dyd lye	J
	-
By that the welked Phoebus gan availe	D
His weary waine and nowe the frosty Night	A
Her mantle black through heauen gan overhaile	D
Which seene the pensife boy halfe in despight	A
Arose and homeward drove his sonned sheepe	K
Whose hanging heads did seeme his carefull case to weepe	K
