To shorten winter's sadness,<br>
 
see where the Nymphs with gladness:<br>
Fa la la la...<br>
Disguised, all are coming,<br>
right wantonly a-mumming:<br>
Fa la la la...<br><br>
Though masks encloud their beauty,<br>
yet give the eye her duty,<br>
Fa la la la...<br>
When Heav'n is dark it shineth,<br>
and unto love inclineth:<br>
Fa la la la...
