No news of navies burnt at seas	A
No noise of late spawn'd tittyries	A
No closet plot or open vent	B
That frights men with a Parliament	C
No new device or late found trick	D
To read by th' stars the kingdom's sick	D
No gin to catch the State or wring	E
The free born nostril of the King	E
We send to you but here a jolly	F
Verse crown'd with ivy and with holly	F
That tells of winter's tales and mirth	G
That milk maids make about the hearth	H
Of Christmas sports the wassail bowl	I
That toss'd up after Fox i' th' hole	I
Of Blind man buff and of the care	J
That young men have to shoe the Mare	J
Of twelf tide cakes of pease and beans	A
Wherewith ye make those merry scenes	A
Whenas ye chuse your king and queen	K
And cry out 'Hey for our town green '	L
Of ash heaps in the which ye use	A
Husbands and wives by streaks to chuse	A
Of crackling laurel which fore sounds	A
A plenteous harvest to your grounds	A
Of these and such like things for shift	M
We send instead of New year's gift	M
Read then and when your faces shine	N
With buxom meat and cap'ring wine	N
Remember us in cups full crown'd	O
And let our city health go round	O
Quite through the young maids and the men	P
To the ninth number if not ten	P
Until the fired chestnuts leap	Q
For joy to see the fruits ye reap	Q
From the plump chalice and the cup	R
That tempts till it be tossed up	R
Then as ye sit about your embers	A
Call not to mind those fled Decembers	A
But think on these that are t' appear	S
As daughters to the instant year	S
Sit crown'd with rose buds and carouse	A
Till LIBER PATER twirls the house	A
About your ears and lay upon	T
The year your cares that's fled and gone	U
And let the russet swains the plough	V
And harrow hang up resting now	V
And to the bag pipe all address	A
Till sleep takes place of weariness	A
And thus throughout with Christmas plays	A
Frolic the full twelve holy days	A
