Past time with good company |
|
I love and shall until I die |
|
Grutch who lust but none deny |
|
So God be pleased, thus live will I |
|
For my pastance |
|
Hunt, sing and dance |
|
My heart is set, all goodly sport |
|
For my comfort, who shall me let? |
|
Youth must have some dalliance |
|
Of good or ill, some pastance |
|
Company, me thinks then best |
|
All thoughts and fancies to digest |
|
For idleness is chief mistress |
|
Of vices all, then who can say |
|
But mirth and play |
|
Is best of all? |
|
Past time with good company |
|
I love and shall until I die |
|
Grutch who lust but none deny |
|
So God be pleased, thus live will I |
|
For my pastance |
|
Hunt, sing and dance |
|
My heart is set, all goodly sport |
|
For my comfort, who shall me let? |
|
Company with honesty |
|
Is virtue, vices to flee |
|
Company is good and ill |
|
But every man hath his free will |
|
The best ensue, the worst eschew |
|
My mind shall be |
|
Virtue to use, vice to refuse |
|
Thus shall I use me |
