&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/center&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
  &lt;blockquote&gt;
    &lt;hr&gt;
    &lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font size=+1&gt;Pastime with good company&lt;/font&gt; &lt;/b&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;Pastime with good company
&lt;br&gt;I love and shall until I die.
&lt;br&gt;Grudge who likes, but none deny,
&lt;br&gt;So God be pleased, thus live will I.
&lt;br&gt;For my pastance:
&lt;br&gt;Hunt, sing, and dance.
&lt;br&gt;My heart is set!
&lt;br&gt;All goodly sport
&lt;br&gt;For my comfort.
&lt;br&gt;Who shall me let?
&lt;p&gt;Youth must have some dalliance,
&lt;br&gt;Of good or ill some pastance.
&lt;br&gt;Company I think then best --
&lt;br&gt;All thoughts and fantasies to digest.
&lt;br&gt;For idleness
&lt;br&gt;Is chief mistress
&lt;br&gt;Of vices all.
&lt;br&gt;Then who can say
&lt;br&gt;But mirth and play
&lt;br&gt;Is best of all?
&lt;p&gt;Company with honesty
&lt;br&gt;Is virtue -- vices to flee.
&lt;br&gt;Company is good and ill,
&lt;br&gt;But every man has his free will.
&lt;br&gt;The best ensue.
&lt;br&gt;The worst eschew.
&lt;br&gt;My mind shall be.
&lt;br&gt;Virtue to use.
&lt;br&gt;Vice to refuse.
&lt;br&gt;Thus shall I use me!&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;b&gt;
&lt;font size=+1&gt;Alas, what shall I do for love?&lt;/font&gt; &lt;/b&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Alas, what shall I do for love?
&lt;br&gt;For love, alas, what shall I do?
&lt;br&gt;Since now so kind
&lt;br&gt;I do you find
&lt;br&gt;To kepe you me unto.
&lt;br&gt;Alasse!
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;blockquote&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;blockquote&gt;
  &lt;blockquote&gt;
    &lt;blockquote&gt;
      &lt;b&gt;
&lt;font size=+1&gt;Oh my heart&lt;/font&gt; &lt;/b&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Oh my heart, and oh my heart,
&lt;br&gt;My hart it is so sore.
&lt;br&gt;Since I must from my love depart,
&lt;br&gt;And know no cause wherefore.
    &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  &amp;nbsp;
&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;
&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font size=+1&gt;The time of youth is to be spent&lt;/font&gt; &lt;/b&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;The time of youth is to be spent,
&lt;br&gt;But vice in it should be forfent.
&lt;br&gt;Pastimes there be I note truly
&lt;br&gt;Which one may use and vice deny.
&lt;br&gt;And they be pleasant to God and man:
&lt;br&gt;Those should we covet when we can.
&lt;br&gt;As feats of arms, and such other
&lt;br&gt;Wherby activeness one may utter.
&lt;br&gt;Comparisons in them may lawfully be set,
&lt;br&gt;For, thereby, courage is surely out fet.
&lt;br&gt;Vertue it is, then, youth for to spend
&lt;br&gt;In good disports which it does fend.&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;b&gt;
&lt;font size=+1&gt;Alac! Alac! What shall I do?&lt;/font&gt; &lt;/b&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;Alac! Alac! What shall I do?
&lt;br&gt;For care is cast in to my heart,
&lt;br&gt;And true love locked thereto.
&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;
  &lt;p&gt;
&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font size=+1&gt;Green grows the holly&lt;/font&gt; &lt;/b&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Green grows the holly.
&lt;br&gt;So does the ivy.
&lt;br&gt;Though winter's blasts blow never so high,
&lt;br&gt;Green grows the holly.
&lt;p&gt;As the holly grows green
&lt;br&gt;And never changes hue,
&lt;br&gt;So I am -- ever have been --
&lt;br&gt;unto my lady true.
&lt;p&gt;As the holly grows green
&lt;br&gt;With ivy all alone,
&lt;br&gt;When flowers can not be seen
&lt;br&gt;And greenwood leaves be gone.
&lt;p&gt;Now unto my lady
&lt;br&gt;Promise to her I make:
&lt;br&gt;From all other, only
&lt;br&gt;to her, I me betake.
&lt;p&gt;Adieu, my own lady.
&lt;br&gt;Adieu, my special
&lt;br&gt;Who hath my heart truly,
&lt;br&gt;Be sure, and ever shall.&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;b&gt;
&lt;font size=+1&gt;Who so that will all feats obtain&lt;/font&gt; &lt;/b&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;Who so that will all feats obtain
&lt;br&gt;In love he must be without disdain.
&lt;br&gt;For love enforces all noble kind,
&lt;br&gt;And disdain discourages all gentle mind.
&lt;br&gt;Wherefore, to love and be not loved
&lt;br&gt;Is worse than death? Let it be proved!
&lt;br&gt;Love encourages, and makes one bold;
&lt;br&gt;Disdain abates and makes him cold.
&lt;br&gt;Love is given to God and man;
&lt;br&gt;To woman also, I think the same.
&lt;br&gt;But disdain is vice, and should be refused,
&lt;br&gt;Yet never the less it is too much used.
&lt;br&gt;Great pity it were, love for to compel
&lt;br&gt;With disdain, both false and subtle.
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&amp;nbsp;
  &lt;p&gt;
&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font size=+1&gt;If love now reigned&lt;/font&gt; &lt;/b&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If love now reigned as it has been
&lt;br&gt;And were rewarded as it has seen,
&lt;br&gt;Noble men then would surely ensearch
&lt;br&gt;All ways whereby they might it reach.
&lt;br&gt;But envy reigns with such disdain
&lt;br&gt;And causes lovers outwardly to refrain,
&lt;br&gt;Which puts them to more and more,
&lt;br&gt;Inwardly, most grievous and sore:
&lt;br&gt;The fault in whom I cannot set,
&lt;br&gt;But let them tell who love does get.
&lt;br&gt;To lovers I put now sure this case:
&lt;br&gt;Which of their loves does get them grace?
&lt;br&gt;And unto them which doth it know
&lt;br&gt;Better than do I, I think it so.
&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;
&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;
&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font size=+1&gt;Whereto should I express&lt;/font&gt; &lt;/b&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;Whereto should I express
&lt;br&gt;My inward heaviness?
&lt;br&gt;No mirth can make me fain,
&lt;br&gt;'Till that we meet again.
&lt;p&gt;Do way, dear heart, not so.
&lt;br&gt;Let no thought you dismay.
&lt;br&gt;Though you now part me from,
&lt;br&gt;We shall meet when we may.
&lt;p&gt;When I remember me
&lt;br&gt;Of your most gentle mind,
&lt;br&gt;It may in no wise agree
&lt;br&gt;That I should be unkind.
&lt;p&gt;The daisy delectable,
&lt;br&gt;The violet waning and blue,
&lt;br&gt;You are not variable --
&lt;br&gt;I love you and no more.
&lt;p&gt;I make you fast and sure;
&lt;br&gt;It is to me great pain
&lt;br&gt;Thus long to endure
&lt;br&gt;'Till that we meet again.&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;b&gt;
&lt;font size=+1&gt;Though that men do call it dotage&lt;/font&gt; &lt;/b&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;Though that men do call it dotage,
&lt;br&gt;Who loves not wants courage.
&lt;br&gt;And whosoever may love get
&lt;br&gt;From Venus surely he must it fetch,
&lt;br&gt;Or else from her which is her heir.
&lt;br&gt;And she to him must seem most fair.
&lt;br&gt;Where eye and mind do both agree;
&lt;br&gt;There is no but -- there must it be!
&lt;br&gt;The eye does look and represent,
&lt;br&gt;But mind affirms with full consent.
&lt;br&gt;Thus am I fixed without grudge:
&lt;br&gt;My eye with heart does me so judge.
&lt;br&gt;Love maintains all noble courage;
&lt;br&gt;Who love disdains is all of the village.
&lt;br&gt;Such lovers, though they take pain,
&lt;br&gt;It were pity they should obtain.
&lt;br&gt;For often times where they do sue
&lt;br&gt;They hinder lovers that would be true.
&lt;br&gt;For who so loves should love but one.
&lt;br&gt;Change who so will, I will be none.
&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;
&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;b&gt;
&lt;font size=+1&gt;Departure is my chief pain&lt;/font&gt; &lt;/b&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Departure is my chief pain
&lt;br&gt;I trust right well of return again.
&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&amp;nbsp;
&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font size=+1&gt;Without discord&lt;/font&gt; &lt;/b&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;Without discord
&lt;br&gt;And both accord,
&lt;br&gt;Now let us be.
&lt;br&gt;Both harts alone
&lt;br&gt;To set in one,
&lt;br&gt;Best seems me.
&lt;br&gt;For when one sole
&lt;br&gt;Is in the dole
&lt;br&gt;Of love's pain,
&lt;br&gt;Then help must have
&lt;br&gt;Himself to save
&lt;br&gt;And love to obtain.
&lt;p&gt;Where for now we
&lt;br&gt;That lovers be,
&lt;br&gt;Let us now pray:
&lt;br&gt;Once love sure
&lt;br&gt;For to procure
&lt;br&gt;Without denial.
&lt;br&gt;Where love so sues
&lt;br&gt;There no heart rues,
&lt;br&gt;But condescend.
&lt;br&gt;If contrary,
&lt;br&gt;What remedy?
&lt;br&gt;God it amend.
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;b&gt;
&lt;font size=+1&gt;Though some say that youth rules me&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;br&gt;&lt;font size=+1&gt;(possibly by King Henry VIII)&lt;/font&gt; &lt;/b&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;Though some say that youth rules me,
&lt;br&gt;I trust in age to tarry.
&lt;br&gt;God and my right, and my duty,
&lt;br&gt;From them shall I never vary,
&lt;br&gt;Though some say that youth rules me.
&lt;p&gt;I pray you all that aged be
&lt;br&gt;How well did you your youth carry?
&lt;br&gt;I think some worse of each degree.
&lt;br&gt;Therein a wager lay dare I,
&lt;br&gt;Though some say that youth rules me.
&lt;p&gt;Pastimes of youth some time among
&lt;br&gt;None can say but necessary.
&lt;br&gt;I hurt no man, I do no wrong,
&lt;br&gt;I love true where I did marry,
&lt;br&gt;Though some say that youth rules me.
&lt;p&gt;Then soon discuss that hence we must
&lt;br&gt;Pray we to God and Saint Mary
&lt;br&gt;That all amend, and here an end.
&lt;br&gt;Thus says the King, the eighth Harry,
&lt;br&gt;Though some say that youth rules me.
&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;
&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;
&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;
&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font size=+1&gt;Who so that will for grace sue&lt;/font&gt; &lt;/b&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Who so that will for grace sue,
&lt;br&gt;His intent must needs be true,
&lt;br&gt;And love her in heart and deed,
&lt;br&gt;Else it were pity that he should speed.
&lt;br&gt;Many one says that love is ill,
&lt;br&gt;But those be they which know no skill.
&lt;p&gt;Or else, because they may not obtain,
&lt;br&gt;They would that others should it disdain.
&lt;br&gt;But love is a thing given by God:
&lt;br&gt;In that, therefore, can be none odd,
&lt;br&gt;But perfect in deed, and between two.
&lt;br&gt;Where fore, then, should we it eschew?&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;
&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font size=+1&gt;Lusty Youth should us ensue!&lt;/font&gt; &lt;/b&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Lusty Youth should us ensue!
&lt;br&gt;His merry heart shall sure all rue.
&lt;br&gt;For whatsoever they do him tell
&lt;br&gt;It is not for him, we know it well.
&lt;p&gt;For they would have him his liberty refrain,
&lt;br&gt;And all merry company for to disdain.
&lt;br&gt;But I will not do whatsoever they say,
&lt;br&gt;But follow his mind in all that we may.
&lt;p&gt;How should youth himself best use
&lt;br&gt;But all disdainers for to refuse?
&lt;br&gt;Youth has as chief assurance
&lt;br&gt;Honest mirth with virtue's pastance.
&lt;p&gt;For in them consists great honour,
&lt;br&gt;Though that disdainers would therein put error.
&lt;br&gt;For they do sue to get them grace --
&lt;br&gt;All only riches to purchase.
&lt;p&gt;With good order, counsel, and equity,
&lt;br&gt;Goode Lord grant us our mansion to be.
&lt;br&gt;For without their good guidance
&lt;br&gt;Youth should fall in great mischance.
&lt;p&gt;For Youth is frail and prompt to do
&lt;br&gt;As well vices as virtues to ensue.
&lt;br&gt;Where fore by these he must be guided,
&lt;br&gt;And virtues pastance must therein be used.
&lt;p&gt;Now unto God this prayer we make,
&lt;br&gt;That this rude play may well betake
&lt;br&gt;And that we may our faults amend
&lt;br&gt;And bliss obtain at our last end. Amen.
&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;
&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;
&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;b&gt;
&lt;font size=+1&gt;Let not us that young men be&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;br&gt;&lt;font size=+1&gt;(possibly by King Henry VIII)&lt;/font&gt; &lt;/b&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;Let not us that young men be
&lt;br&gt;From Venus' ways banished to be, banished to be.
&lt;br&gt;Though that Age with great disdain
&lt;br&gt;Would have Youth love to refrain, love to refrain,
&lt;br&gt;In their minds consider they must
&lt;br&gt;How they did in their most lust.
&lt;p&gt;For, if they were in like case
&lt;br&gt;And would then have gotten grace,
&lt;br&gt;They may not now than gainsay
&lt;br&gt;That which then was most their joy.
&lt;br&gt;Where for indeed, the truth to say,
&lt;br&gt;It is for Youth the metest play.&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
