MASQUE AT THE MARRIAGE OF THE EARL OF SOMERSET: SONG (2) by THOMAS CAMPION

Poet Analysis

First Line: COME ASHORE, COME, MERRY MATES
Last Line: AND SO GOOD-NIGHT TO ALL, GOOD-NIGHT TO ALL.
@3Come ashore, come, merry mates,
With your nimble heels and pates:
Summon every man his knight,
Enough honoured is this night.
Now, let your sea-born goddess come,
Quench these lights, and make all dumb.
Some sleep; others let her call:
And so good-night to all, good-night to all.@1
