[01:00.90]	all hail to the days that merit more praise
[01:07.94]	than all of the rest of the year,
[01:14.52]	and welcome the nights that double delights
[01:21.42]	as well for the poor as the peer!
[01:27.87]	good fortune attend each merry mans friend
[01:34.66]	that doth but the best that he may,
[01:40.77]	forgetting old wrongs with carols and songs
[01:47.94]	to drive the cold winter away.
[01:54.12]
[02:01.28]	tis ill for a mind to anger inclined
[02:07.49]	to think of small injuries now,
[02:13.41]	if wrath be to seek, do not lend her thy cheek,
[02:19.54]	nor let her inhabit thy brow.
[02:25.59]	cross out thy books malevolent looks,
[02:32.24]	both beauty and youths decay,
[02:38.16]	and wholly consort with mirth and with sport
[02:44.77]	to drive the cold winter away.
[02:51.18]
[03:03.16]	this time of the year is spent in good cheer,
[03:09.64]	and neighbours together do meet,
[03:15.42]	to sit by the fire, with friendly desire,
[03:21.75]	each other in love to greet.
[03:27.44]	old grudges forgot are put in the pot,
[03:33.86]	all sorrows aside they lay;
[03:39.89]	the old and the young doth carol this song,
[03:46.14]	to drive the cold winter away.
[03:52.53]
[04:45.85]	when christmass tide comes in like a bride,
[04:52.48]	with holly and ivy clad,
[04:58.51]	twelve days in the year much mirth and good cheer
[05:05.01]	in every household is had.
[05:11.06]	the country guise is then to devise
[05:17.49]	some gambols of christmas play,
[05:23.25]	whereat the young men do best that they can
[05:30.44]	to drive the cold winter away.
