William Shakespeare wrote Twelfth Night c 1601-02, and its 1st recorded performance was in 1602. Duke Orsino says:
O, fellow, come, the song we had last night. Mark it, Cesario, it is old and plain; The spinsters and the knitters in the sun And the free maids that weave their thread with bones Do use to chant it: it is silly sooth, And dallies with the innocence of love, Like the old age. |
