Ancient Christmas Carol.

Carol singing at Christmas is a custom of great antiquity. Jeremy Taylor says, that the song of the Angels on the birth of the Saviour, was the first Christmas Carol. Without going back to so distant a period, we may instance the Anglo-Norman Carol, from a MS. in the British Museum, translated by Douce, and printed in Brand's "Popular Antiquities." Other specimens of a later date will be found in Sandy's work on Carols, and many more exist among the MSS. of our public libraries. A passage in Leland's Collectanea (vol. iv. p. 237) proves that they occasionally gladdened the festivities of royalty. He relates that Henry VII., in the third year of his reign, kept his Christmas at Greenwich: on the twelfth night, after high mass, the king went to the Hall, and kept his estate at the table; in the middle sat the dean, and those of the king's chapel, who, immediately after the king's first course, sang a carall. The earliest printed collection of Carols was published by Wynkyn de Worde in the year 1521. Only one leaf of this book is known to exist, and that was picked up by Hearne, the Antiquary; Dr. Rawlinson purchased it at his decease, and bequeathed it to the Bodleian library. There are two Carols upon it: one, "a caroll of huntynge," is reprinted in the last edition of Juliana Berners' " Boke of St. Alban's ;" the other, "a caroll bringing in the bore's head," is in Dr. Dibdin's "Ames," with a copy of it as it is now sung in Queen's College, Oxford, every Christmas-day.

66

The following Carol is, we believe, now printed for the first time. It occurs among the Harleian MSS. in the British Museum, and was written during the reign of Henry VI. It is more remarkable for the whimsical termination of each stanza, than for its poetic merit. Probably the author thought, (as one of Ben Jonson's character's did, at a later day, of a similar composition) that "it cried 'tink' at the close, divinely!"

To the kynge of grete renown,
Of grace-a,
In hevyn to have a place-a.

TENTH COLLATION OF RARE BIBLES.
NEW TEST.-Tyndale, 1548, 4to.
Title in Red and Black, within an architectural
woodcut border.

The newe Testament of the last Translacion. By Wylliam Tyndall with the Prologes and annotacions in the mergent, declaryng many harde places conteyned in the texte. Also in the later ende foloweth the Epistles of the olde Testament. Imprynted in the yere of oure Lorde God MDxlix And in the thyrd yere of the reigne of our moost dreade Souerayne Lorde Kynge Edwarde the Syxte. Cum priuilegio ad imprimendum solum.

On the reverse of the title is an almanack for 22 years beginning 1549. A Calender 3 leaves-at the foot of each month are four verses comparing each month to the different stages of human life. . . . . Tyndale's prologue beginning "Here hast thou most dere reader" 6 pages. The sum, or contents of the 4 Gospels and the Acts.... 6 pages. . . . The gospel of S. Matthew begins on Bi.. The contents of the chapters are not prefixed.. The running titles to the gospels read, Mathew, Mark &c. . . not S. Mathew.. S. Mark.... it has the prologue to S. Mathew.. to the Romans (20 leaves).. and to all the other epistles; but those to S. Mark, S. Luke and S. John are omitted. There are marginal notes which as well as the prologues are printed in a smaller type than the text. After the Revelations, follow "The Epistles taken out of the Old Testament after the use of Salisbury . . . . 20 Leaves. . . . at the foot of the

last is "Imprinted at London wythin Aldrichgate in the parisshe of Sayncte Anne & Agnes by Wyllyam Tylle in the yere of oure Lorde God 1548. Cum priuilegio ad imprimendum solum.".... After this are two leaves of Table of "Epistles & Gospels usuallye reade in the churche, accordynge unto the booke of Common prayer" ending on the 3rd page. . . . These have evidently never belonged to the volume, although the only other copy able to be traced, has them also. The first page bears the signature Ii and at the foot of the last is "Imprynted at London by Thomas Petet. . . . . . The whole volume is in Black Letter .... no folios. . . . . The type much battered . . . . the composition very confused and bad, the words frequently run together without spaces. . . . . The chapters are very incorrectly numbered. . . . too often to enumerate . . . . . The whole book is filled with errors. ... additions & omissions of the most serious description. . . . . The following as a specimen, out of very many

Matt. 5 A Blessed are they that mourn, † for they shall enherit the earth.

(omitting the words "for they shall be comforted. Blessed are the meek") Luke 11 A and forgive every man that tres

passeth us

(omitting "us our trespasses as we forgive")

- a prophet hath no honour but in his own country.

For I have spoken of myself ("not" omitted)

And all members have one office ("not" omitted)

1 Cor. 13 D And our prophecying is perfect. (imper

fect)

15 E It is sown in corruption and riseth in corruption (incorruption)

And a multitude of others equally gross and extraordinary. It can only be accounted for by supposing that the book must have been printed abroad by one who knew not a word of English.

The signatures are B-Z.. AA - Nn in 8's. There are no wood cuts... a full page generally contains 35 Lines.

"Be assured that the magnanimity of uprightness, and all the elevating and all the attractive qualities of the human mind, are the best protection of nations, as well as individuals; that the path of honour is the path of true policy; and that the great Governor of the world, in public, as well as in private life, has indissolubly connected, even on this side the grave, the happiness of his creatures, with the exercise of their virtues, and the fulfilment of their duties.". Professor Smyth on the French Revolution.
