Secular works

Albion, thy sea-encircled isle As now the shades of eve Beneath a weight of hapless love By mason's art, the aspiring dome Come thou monarch of the vine Epitaph on a Dormouse Hand in hand with fairy grace

Hark, hark the lark Interred here doth lye a worthy wyght Lover, thou must be presuming The Mouse's Petition O come ye fair, while blooming May O sacred friendship, heaven's delight O Venus, regina Cnidi Paphique

Prithee fill me the glass Sweet harmonist (Ode on Handel) Tho mean thy birth To fair Fidele's grassy tomb To you fair ladies now in town
