when birds do sing (blue)

This design was inspired by a song from Shakespeare's comedy 'As You Like It'

It was a Lover and Lass,
With a hey and a ho and a hey nonino...
...When Birds do sing, hey ding a ding, ding,
Sweet Lovers love the Spring.

A chorus of English songbirds in a coppiced tree, in a style which echoes that of Jacobean embroideries and the 'typeface' is copied from a 1714 edition of the play.
