An Anonymous sixteenth century poem
to send you on your way:
to send you on your way:
Now have good day, now have good day.
I am Shrovetide, and now I go my way.
But often times I have heard say
That one is loath to part away
That often biddeth "have good day,"
Now have good day.
I take my leave of king and knight,
And earl, baron, and lady bright,
To wilderness I must delight,
Now have good day.
And from the good lord of this hall,
I take my leave, and of guests all:
Methinks I hear Lent doth call,
Now have good day.
Blessings, All! See you in church.
