Poems and Songs
Pastime With Good Company
Whereto should I express
Whoso that will all feats obtain
Whoso that will for grace sue
Green Groweth the Holly
Though That Men Do Call It Dotage
Though some Saith that Youth Ruleth Me
If Love Now Reigned, As It Hath Been
Lusty Youth Should Us Ensue
The Time of Youth is to be Spent
Alas, what shall I do for love?
Oh, my heart!
Alack, alack, what shall I do?
Departure is my chief pain
Without discord

Elizabeth I (1533 - 1603) would have had many forms of entertainment, some of them rather cruel to our modern sensibilities. For example, bear baiting, bull baiting, dog fighting, cockerel fighting, hunting with dogs and hawks, watching jousts, theatre, card games, dice, board games such as chess, dancing (Henry VIII and Elizabeth I loved dancing, and both danced well), music (again something Henry VIII and Elizabeth I excelled at).
