MASQUE AT THE MARRIAGE OF THE EARL OF SOMERSET: SONG (3) by THOMAS CAMPION

Poet Analysis

First Line: HASTE ABOARD, HASTE NOW AWAY
Last Line: AND SO GOOD-NIGHT TO ALL, GOOD-NIGHT TO ALL.
@3Haste aboard, haste now away!
Hymen frowns at your delay.
Hymen doth long nights affect;
Yield him then his due respect.
The sea-born goddess straight will come,
Quench these lights, and make all dumb.
Some sleep; others she will call:
And so good-night to all, good-night to all.@1
