Love

Come triumphing, come with state

by Thomas Campion 1567–1620

From The Lords' Masque (1613)

Love

Come triumphing, come with state,
Old Sibylla, reverend dame;
Thou keep'st the secret key of fate,
Preventing swiftest Fame.
This night breathe only words of joy,
And speak them plain, now be not coy.
