Best Answer

In Shakespeare's time, "gay" did not connote a sexual orientation. "Gay" indicated merriment or happiness, so "gay goose" most likely referred to a festive or lively goose. It could also possibly refer to a well-dressed or adorned goose.

Which Shakespeare play did the phrase a wild goose chase come from?

He probably did not originate the term, as it must have started as a game, like a greased pig chase. Shakespeare did however use the phrase in Romeo and Juliet, which would have popularized it. Mercutio says: Nay, if thy wits run the wild-goose chase, I have done, for thou hast more of the wild-goose in one of thy wits than, I am sure, I have in my whole five: was I with you there for the goose?
