SECOND SONG.—TO THE SAME.
Thy tuwhits are lulled I wot,Thy tuwhoos of yesternight,Which upon the dark afloat,So took echo with delight,So took echo with delight,That her voice untuneful grown,Wears all day a fainter tone.
I would mock thy chaunt anew;But I cannot mimick it;Not a whit of thy tuwhoo,Thee to woo to thy tuwhit,Thee to woo to thy tuwhit,With a lengthened loud halloo,Tuwhoo, tuwhit, tuwhit, tuwhoo-o-o.
