Wassail! Wassail!
"Wassail! Wassail!" is a lively celebratory poem evoking the rowdy, ale-filled revelry of medieval England, where knights, monks, and yeomen alike cast off their cares in communal festivity. From candlelit priestly houses to the warm hearth of a yeoman's cottage, the poem paints a vivid portrait of free-spirited merriment and open-door hospitality. The final image — a simple home glowing with honest laughter, welcoming all who pass — gives the boisterous celebration an unexpectedly warm and generous heart.
