The Artist:
Thomas Augustine Arne (March 12, 1710 - March 5, 1778) was an English composer, best known for the popular patriotic song, 'Rule Britannia', which is still frequently sung, notably at the Last Night of the Proms, and also his musical settings of songs from the plays of William Shakespeare.

LYRICS:
Where the bee sucks, there suck I:
In a cowslip’s bell I lie;
There I couch when owls do cry.
On the bat’s back I do fly
After summer merrily.
Merrily, merrily shall I live now
Under the blossom that hangs on the bough.
