The words
Verse 1
April is in my mistress' face, April is in my mistress' face, my mistress' face, April is in my mistress' face, And July in her eyes hath place, And July in her eyes, her eyes hath place. Within her bosom, within her bosom is Septem- ber, But in her heart, but in her heart, her heart, a cold De- cem- ber; But in her heart, but in her heart, her heart, a cold Decem- ber.
Free to sing: Thomas Morley died in 1602.
