“The Honorable Entertainement given to the Queenes Majestie (Queen

“The thirde daies Entertainement.

“On Wednesday morning, about 9 o’clock, as her Majestie opened a
casement of her gallerie window, ther were three excellent musitians,
who, being disguised in auncient country attire, did greete her with a
pleasant song of Corydon and Phillida, made in three parts, of
purpose. The song, as well for the worth of the dittie, as the
aptnesse of the note thereto applied, it pleased her Highnesse after
it had been once sung, to command it againe, and highly to grace it
with her cheerefull acceptaunce and commendation.”
