Candlemass Eve

x 4 Down with the rosemary and bay, Down with the mistletoe, Instead of holly, now up-raise The greener box, to show The greener box to show. The holly hitherto did sway, Let box now domineer, Until the dancing Easter day, On Easter's eve appear, On Easter's eve appear. Thus times do shift, thus times do shift, Each thing it's time doth hold, New things succeed, new things succeed, As former things grow old. The youthful box which now hath grace, Your houses to renew, Grown old, surrender must it's place, Unto the freshened yew, Unto the freshened yew. Thus times do shift, thus times do shift, Each thing it's time doth hold, New things succeed, new things succeed, As former things grow old. anybody work out the middle 8? please let me know When yew is out, then birch comes in And many the flowers beside, Both of a fresh and fragrant kin, To honour Whitsuntide, To honour Whitsuntide. Thus times do shift, thus times do shift, Each thing it's time doth hold, New things succeed, new things succeed, As former things grow old. Down with the rosemary and bay, Down with the mistletoe, Instead of holly, now up-raise The greener box, to show The greener box to show. Thus times do shift, thus times do shift, Each thing it's time doth hold, New things succeed, new things succeed, As former things grow old. Thus times do shift, thus times do shift, Each thing it's time doth hold, New things succeed, new things succeed, As former things grow old.
