Early to Bed, Early to Rise

www.yeoldetymenews.com

Early to bed

‘Tis quaintly reviving

But illegal for peasants.

Now get back to scything!

*

Early to rise,

‘Tis requir’d by Charter.

Thou takes to the fields

And The King takes thy doghter.

*

Ne’er to slumber,

Who cares if thou sleeps?

Thy bodie is nought

But a tool for thy liege.
