CHRISTMAS TALE [1]. English, Reel (cut time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. A Christmas Tale was a popular stage production in five parts by wikipedia:David_Garrick, performed at wikipedia:Theatre_Royal,_Drury_Lane in 1773. It included a personified Christmas character (as in 'Father Christmas') who announced in the prologue:
Behold a personage well known to fame;
Once lov'd and honour'd – Christmas is my name!....
With carrol, fiddle, dance, and pleasant tale,
Jest, gibe, prank, gambol, mummery and ale,
I, English hearts rejoic'd in days of yore;
for new strange modes, imported by the score,
You will not sure turn Christmas out of door!
