Elizabethan ChristmasGood husband and huswife, now chiefly be glad,Things handsome to have, as they ought to be had.They both do provide, against Christmas do come,To welcome their neighbors, good cheer to have some.Good bread and good drink, a good fire in the hall,Brawn, pudding, and souse, and good mustard withal.Beef, mutton, and pork, and good pies of the best,Pig, veal, goose, and capon, and turkey well drest,Cheese, apples and nuts, and good carols to hear,As then in the country is counted good cheer.What cost to good husband, is any of this?Good household provision only it is:
