Though some saith that youth ruleth me, <br /> I trust in age to tarry. <br /> God and my right and my duty, <br /> From them I shall never vary, <br /> Though some say that youth ruleth me. <br /> I pray you all that aged be, <br /> How well did ye your youth carry? <br /> I think some worse, of each degree: <br /> Therein a wager lay dare I, <br /> Though some saith that youth ruleth me. <br /> <br /> Pastimes of youth sometime among, <br /> None can say but necessary. <br /> I hurt no man, I do no wrong, <br /> I love true where I did marry, <br /> Though some saith that youth ruleth me. <br /> <br /> Then soon discuss that hence we must. <br /> Pray we to God and Saint Mary <br /> That all amend, and here an end, <br /> Thus saith the king, the eighth Harry, <br /> Though some saith that youth ruleth me.<br /><br />Henry VIII Tudor<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/though-some-saith-that-youth-ruleth-me/
