| Come, my Corinna, come; and coming, markHow each field turns a street; each street a park
 Made green, and trimm'd with trees:  see how
 Devotion gives each house a bough
 Or branch:  each porch, each door, ere this,
 An ark, a tabernacle is
 Made up of white-thorn neatly interwove;
 As if here were those cooler shades of love.
 Can such delights be in the street,
 And open fields, and we not see't?
 Come, we'll abroad:  and let's obey
 The proclamation made for May:
 And sin no more, as we have done, by staying;
 But, my Corinna, come, let's go a Maying.
