## The words

Spring, the sweet Spring, is the year's pleasant  
King, Then blooms each thing, then maids dance  
in a ring,  
Cold doth not sting, the pretty birds do sing  
Cuckoo, jugjug, puwe, towittawoo  
The palm and may make country houses gay,  
Lambs frisk and play, the shepherd’s pipe all  
day, And we hear aye birds tune this merry lay  
Cuckoo, jugjug, puwe.  
Spring, Spring, the sweet Spring!
