April is in my mistress' face
- April is in my mistress' face
April is in my mistress' face written by Thomas Morley is one of the best-known and shortest of English madrigals; it was published in 1594, and appears to be based on an Italian text by Livio Celiano, set by Orazio Vecchi in 1587; (see ref. 1 and accompanying recording).
The following text is from the ChoralWiki
:April is in my mistress' face, :And July in her eyes hath place; :Within her bosom is September, :But in her heart a cold December.
