History & Politics
Triumph now with joy and mirth!
From Masque at the Marriage of the Lord Hayes (1607)
History & Politics
Triumph now with joy and mirth!
The God of Peace hath blessed our land:
We enjoy the fruits of earth
Through favour of His bounteous hand.
We through His most loving grace
A king and kingly seed behold,
Like a sun with lesser stars
Or careful shepherd to his fold:
Triumph then, and yield Him praise
That gives us blest and joyful days.
