From these sweet-springing meads and bursting boughs of May,

Welcome the dawn.”

He that outlives this day and comes safe home
Will stand a-tiptoe when this day is namd
And rouse him at the name of Crispian.
He that shall live this day, and see old age,
Will yearly on the vigil feast his neighbours
And say, Tomorrow is Saint Crispian.”
