"Flora Gave me Fairest Flowers" was composed in 1598 by English Madrigal composer John Wilbye. It is arranged here for brass quintet by Greg Bartholomew.

The original text follows.
"Flora gave me fairest flowers,
None so fair in Flora's treasure:
These I plac'd on Phillis' bowers,
She was pleas'd, and she my pleasure
Smiling meadows seem to say,
Come ye wantons, here to play."
