CHRISTMAS IN
OLDEN TIME
By SIR WALTER SCOTT

LEAP on more wood The wind is chilli

Well keep our Christmas merry still.
Each age has deemed the newborn year
The littest time for lestaI cheer,
And we'll our Christmas sires of old
Loved, when the year its course had rolled
And brought blithe Christmas back agair
With all its hospitable train,
With social and religious rite
To honor all the holy night.
On Christmas eve the bells were rungi
On Christmas eve the mass was sung.
Then opered wide the baron's hall
To vassal, tenant, serl and all
