For Christmas

This carol requires the installation of the "Old Blacketter" font for best display.
Also available in a Middle English Font: In this tyme of Chrystmas
In the honour of Chri~ts byrth
Syng we al with ioye and myrthe.
In this tyme of Chry~tmas
Bytwyxte an oxe and an a~~e
A mayden delyuered was
Of Chri~t dere ~on dere.
