YE Nymphes of Mulla which with carefull heed, <br />The siluer scaly trouts doe tend full well, <br />and greedy pikes which vse therein to feed, <br />(Those trouts and pikes all others doo excell) <br />And ye likewise which keepe the rushy lake, <br />Where none doo fishes take. <br />Bynd vp the locks the which hang scatterd light, <br />And in his waters which your mirror make, <br />Behold your faces as the christall bright, <br />That when you come whereas my loue doth lie, <br />No blemish she may spie. <br />And eke ye lightfoot mayds which keepe the dore, <br />That on the hoary mountayne vie to towre, <br />And the wylde wolues which seeke them to deuoure, <br />With your steele darts doo chace fro[m] comming neer <br />Be also present heere, <br />To helpe to decke her and to help to sing, <br />That all the woods may answer and your eccho ring.<br /><br />Edmund Spenser<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/poem-4-2/
