Aprill is in my mistris face, Aprill is in my mistris face, And July in hir eyes hath place; With in hir bosome is September, But in her heart a could December. Aprill is in my mistris 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.
