Like many other madrigalists, Bennet often chose his texts either from translations of the first Italian pieces to be brought to England in Yonge's Musica Transalpina, or from those already used by Morley. Two direct comparisons may be made between Morley and Bennet in O sleep, fond fancy (to identical words) and the effect of the former's Come, lovers, follow me on the latter's Come, shepherd, follow me.
