SC - Treacle Well?

[harper@idt.net]

This adds nicely to the Boar's Head Feast I was working on earlier.  This
just came across our Kingdome elist, and I thought the folks here would
like to see it.  
Hope everyone is having a joyous holiday season,
Christianna

Merrie Christmasse

Be of Good Chere at Christmas Time
Good husband and huswife
now chiefly be glad
Things handsome to have as
they ought to be had.
They do provide, against
Christmas do come,
to welcome their neighbors,
good chere to have some.
Good bread and good drink,
a good fier in the hall,
brawne, pudding and sause,
and good mustarde withal.
Bief, mutton, and porke, and
good pies of the best,
Pig, veal, goose, and capon,
and turkey well drest.
Chese, apples, and nuttes, and
good caroles to heare,
As then, in the country, is
counted good chere.
