The Ceremonies For Candlemas Day Poem by Robert Herrick

The Ceremonies For Candlemas Day

Rating: 2.8


Kindle the Christmas brand, and then
Till sunset let it burn;
Which quench'd, then lay it up again,
Till Christmas next return.

Part must be kept, wherewith to teend
The Christmas log next year;
And where 'tis safely kept, the fiend
Can do no mischief there.
