Roister Doister / Written, probably also represented, before 1553. Carefully edited from the unique copy, now at Eton College

by Nicholas Udall

A Wydowe worthe a thousande pounde,

I mun be maried a sunday.

Custance is as sweete as honey,

Custance is as sweete as honey,

I hir lambe and she my coney,

I mun be maried a Sunday.

When we shall make our weddyng feast,

When we shall make oure weddyng feast,

There shall bee cheere for man and beast,

I mun be maried a Sunday.
