Here's another Princely Delight for you guys (I should make a separate tag for these), and this one is especially delightful in that it's completely hilarious. Also, it's a duet, so if you want to sing it, you can recruit a friend of the opposite gender to do the other part (or, you know, the same gender, that's okay too

If you have the time, opportunity and inclination, you might get some fun out of Sir Thomas Prys (spellings vary). He was a 16th century pirate (mostly), a rather unsuccessful one at that; his poetry includes a gazetteer of prisons from inside knowledge and a hilarious, gloriously macaronic one about a particularly unsuccessful piratical expedition (the beer has gone bad and the prey defeats them), mostly in Welsh but ending with a decision to give up piracy:

"Bee fore I will pill or part
By the sea, Ile be shepart"

I can't find out much about him, and would dearly know how he managed to get knighted. Unless he made that up.

And I didn't make him up! Honestly!

I MUST find out more about this man.

Because he sounds AWESOME.

Dear God. How is this not as well-known or anthologized as "I haue a gentil Cock"?
