QUOTATION:Hark, hark! the lark at heaven’s gate sings,
  And Phœbus ’gins arise, 1
His steeds to water at those springs
  On chaliced flowers that lies;
And winking Mary-buds begin
  To ope their golden eyes:
With everything that pretty is,
  My lady sweet, arise.
ATTRIBUTION:Cymbeline. Act ii. Sc. 3.  [text]
