Hymn To Diana lyrics

Queen and huntress chaste and fair

Now the sun is laid to sleep

Seated in a silver chair

State in wonted manner keep



Earth let not an envious shade

Dare itself to inter pose

Cynthias shining orb was made

Heavn to cheer when day did close



Lay the bow of pearl apart

And the crystal shining quiver

Give un to the flying hart

Space to breathe how short so ever



Hesper us entreats thy light

Goddess excellently bright

Bless us then with wished sight

Thou who makes a day of night
