—At that time was their ensenzie,
Within a field of green,
An ermine white departed was,
All lily white and clean:
Whose neck did bear a topaz chain,
Insert with finest gold,
To witness well that purity
Which they did always hold.
No human pace nor earthly steps
Their walking was and trace,
But heavenly all, and all their words
Were full of heavenly grace.
O bleft be these, well be these blest,
And happy thrice again,
That to such destine creat be,
And such good fate sustain.
As twinkling stars they all appeared,
In midst a sun of light,
Decoring them even with those beams,
Which dazzled not their sight.
Their heads with garlands were bedecked
Of red incarnate rose,
With violas of brawest hues,
And flowers of brawest chose.
And as a noble gentle heart
Great glory does obtain,
So did this joyful company
With joy each footstep trane.
