Original text and translations

English text

1. Tomorrow is the marriage day
  Of Mopius and fair Philliday;
  Come shepherds, bring your garlands gay.

2. If love lie in so foul a nest,
  And foulness on so fair a breast,
  What lover may not hope the best?

3. O do not weep, fair Bellamour;
  Though he be gone, there's many more,
  For love has many loves in store.
