Pastime With Good Company Lyrics

Pastime with good company
I love and shall unto I die;
Grudge who will, 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?
[ Lyrics from: http://www.cloverlyrics.com/e85680-lesley_garrett~pastime_with_good_company_lyrics.html ]
Youth must have some dalliance,
Of good or ill some pastance;
Company methinks 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?

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
This shall I use me.

For my pastance
Hunt, sing and dance. My heart is set
All goodly sport for my comfort,
Who shall me let?
