Edmund Spenser - Poem 21 lyrics

WHo is the same, which at my window peepes? Or whose is that faire face, that shines so bright, Is it not Cinthia, she that neuer sleepes, But walkes about high heauen al the night? O fayrest goddesse, do thou not enuy My loue with me to spy: For thou likewise didst loue, though now vnthought, And for a fleece of woll, which priuily, The Latmian shephard once vnto thee brought, His pleasures with thee wrought, Therefore to vs be fauorable now; And sith of wemens labours thou hast charge, And generation goodly dost enlarge, Encline they will t'effect our wishfull vow, And the chast wombe informe with timely seed, That may our comfort breed: Till which we cease our hopefull hap to sing, Ne let the woods vs answere, nor our Eccho ring.
