Doubtless the songs are by Dekker.
THOMAS DEKKER. 85 LULLABY.
GOLDEN slumbers kiss your eyes, Smiles awake you when you rise. Sleep, pretty wantons, do not cry, And I will sing a lullaby : Rock them, rock them, lullaby.
Care is heavy, therefore sleep you ; You are care, and care must keep you. Sleep, pretty wantons, do not cry, And I will sing a lullaby : Rock them, rock them, lullaby.
BEAUTY, ARISE !
BEAUTY, arise, show forth thy glorious shining ; Thine eyes feed love, for them he standeth pi...ning ; Honour and youth attend to do their duty To thee, their only sovereign beauty. Beauty, arise, whilst we, thy servants, sing Io to Hymen, wedlock's jocund king. Io to Hymen, Io, Io, sing, Of wedlock, love, and youth, is Hymen king.
Beauty, arise, thy glorious lights display, Whilst we sing Io, glad to see this day.
Io, Io, to Hymen, Io, Io, sing, Of wedlock, love, and youth, is Hymen king.
86 THOMAS DEKKER.
From Ford and Dekker's The Sun's Darling, 1656. 1 THE INVITATION.
LIVE with me still, and all the measures Played to by the spheres I'll teach thee ; Let's but thus dally, all the pleasures The moon beholds, her man shall reach thee.
