1 Spring, the sweet spring, is the year's pleasant king, <br />2 Then blooms each thing, then maids dance in a ring, <br />3 Cold doth not sting, the pretty birds do sing: <br />4 Cuckoo, jug-jug, pu-we, to-witta-woo! <br /> <br />5 The palm and may make country houses gay, <br />6 Lambs frisk and play, the shepherds pipe all day, <br />7 And we hear aye birds tune this merry lay: <br />8 Cuckoo, jug-jug, pu-we, to-witta-woo! <br /> <br />9 The fields breathe sweet, the daisies kiss our feet, <br />10 Young lovers meet, old wives a-sunning sit, <br />11 In every street these tunes our ears do greet: <br />12 Cuckoo, jug-jug, pu-we, to witta-woo!<br /><br />Thomas Nashe<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/summer-s-last-will-and-testament-excerpt/
