EARLY CAROLS

I sing of a maiden That is makeless; King of all king?s To her son she ches; He came also still There his mother was, As dew in April That falleth on the grass. He came also still To his mother's bower, As dew in April That falleth on the flower. He came also still There his mother lay, As dew in April That falleth on the spray. Mother and maiden Was never none but she; Well may such a lady Goddes mother be.

Matchless.

Chose.

As Joseph was a-walking He heard an angel sing:-- 'This night shall be born Our heavenly King;

'He neither shall be born In housen nor in hall, Nor in the place of Paradise, But in an ox's stall;

'He neither shall be clothed In purple nor in pall, But all in fair linen As were babies all.

'He neither shall be rocked In silver nor in gold, But in a wooden cradle That rocks on the mould.

'He neither shall be christened In white wine or red, But with fair spring water With which we were christened.'
