Though some saith Henry VIII

Though some saith that youth ruleth me
I trust in age to tarry
God and my right and my duty
From them I shall never vary
Though some say that youth ruleth me

I pray you all that aged be
How well did ye your youth carry?
I think some worse, of each degree:
Therein a wager lay dare I
Though some saith that youth ruleth me

Pastimes of youth sometime among
None can say but necessary
I hurt no man, I do no wrong
I love true where I did marry
Though some saith that youth ruleth me

Then soon discuss that hence we must
Pray we to God and Saint Mary
That all amend, and here an end
Thus saith the king, the eighth Harry
Though some saith that youth ruleth me
