<blockquote>
''Where the bee sucks, there lurk I;''<br>
''In a Cowslip's bell I lie;''<br>
''There I couch when owls do cry;''<br>
''On a bat's back I do fly''<br>
''After summer merrily.''<br>
''Merrily, merrily, shall I live now''<br>
''Under the blossom that hangs on the bough.'' <br>
</blockquote>
"The fine small crimson drops in the Cowslip's chalice are said to possess the rare virtue of preserving, and even restoring, youthful bloom and beauty; for these ruddy spots are fairy favours, and therefore have enchanted value. Shakespeare says of this flower of the Fays:--
<blockquote>
''And I serve the Fairy Queen,''<br>
''To dew her orbs upon the green:''<br>
''The Cowslips tall her pensioners be;''<br>
''In their gold coats spots you see;''<br>
''Those be rubies, fairy favours:''<br>
''In those freckles live their saviors.''    [Quoted from Richard Folkard, '''Plant Lore, Legends and Lyrics''', 1884]<br>
</blockquote>
The melody appears in Edward Jones' '''Musical Relicks of the Welsh Bards''' (1794).
