[00:28.580]Pastime with good company,
[00:32.660]I love, and shall until I die.
[00:37.740]Grudge who will, but none deny,
[00:42.080]So God be pleased, thus live will I.
[00:46.880]For my pastance:
[00:49.280]Hunt, sing, and dance,
[00:51.580]My heart is set!
[00:53.980]All goodly sport,
[00:56.400]For my comfort,
[00:58.770]Who shall me let?
[01:06.430]Youth must have some dalliance,
[01:10.540]Of good or ill some pastance.
[01:15.730]Company methinks them best,
[01:20.130]All thoughts and fancies to digest.
[01:24.880]For idleness,
[01:27.120]Is chief mistress
[01:29.580]Of vices all:
[01:31.960]Then who can say,
[01:34.350]But mirth and play,
[01:36.700]Is best of all?
[02:22.250]Company with honesty,
[02:26.460]Is virtue, vice to flee.
[02:31.570]Company is good and ill,
[02:35.880]But every man has his free will.
[02:40.830]The best ensue,
[02:43.110]The worst eschew,
[02:45.430]My mind shall be:
[02:47.940]Virtue to use,
[02:50.160]Vice to refuse,
[02:52.380]Thus shall I use me!
