it means an Irish person is calling you a chicken

by William Shakespeare. Go, ye giddy goose. Henry IV Part 1, 3. 1. William Shakespeare - English Dramatist and Poet. Born 1564

Lady Percy, the sister of Mortimer answers an erotic remark of her husband Percy. Nowadays one should say: You silly f..k. Shakespeare always plays with eroticism. Percy had said: Thou art perfect in laying down. "Laying down" meant "co...te" in the 16th century. "Goose" in those dayse has the connotation "a c..t" or "a prost...te"'.

It has nothing to do with Irish persons. The Mortimors originate from Wales and were close to the English throne
