Thomas Dekker,
The First Three-Men's Song
(1887)
“ But O, I spy the cuckoo, the cuckoo, the cuckoo; See where she sitteth: come away, my joy; Come away, I prithee: I do not like the cuckoo Should sing where my Peggy and I kiss and toy." O the month of May, the merry month of May, So frolic, so gay, and so green, so green, so green! ”
