• As Vesta Was from Latmos Hill Descending (1601)

—Thomas Weelkes
As Vesta was from Latmos hill descending
She spied a maiden Queen the same ascending,
Attended on by all the shepherds’ swain;
To whom Diana’s darlings came running down amain
First two by two, then three by three, together
Leaving their Goddess all alone, hasted thither;
And mingling with the shepherds of her train,
With mirthful tunes her presence did entertain.
Then sang the shepherds, and nymphs of Diana:
Long live fair Oriana!
