The tone is celebratory and full of promise. This shepherd is really working hard to convince his love to hook up with him! The tone is like an ode of praise to both his love and the pastoral beauty that awaits her if she chooses him. Of course the pastoral beauty exists regardless if the shepherd is there or not.
