The Lord of Misrule and his Merry band of Mummers

“Here we stand before your door,
As we stood the year before;
Give us whiskey, give us gin,
Open the door and let us in.”

Christmas Song, by Edwin Waugh

Bring in the green holly, the box, and the yew, the fir, and the laurel, all sparkling with rime; Hang up to the ceiling the mistletoe-bough, and let us be jolly another yule-time!
