For anyone who feels that they've eaten too much, here is a
Carol for #ChristmasDay at Night: An anonymous 17thC #ballad carol describing many of the foods eaten at Christmas.
From New #Christmas #Carols, 1662.
In common with many #broadsideballads, this carol appear with lyrics but no music. Instead, instructions are given for the choice of melody - in this case, the popular tune, #Greensleeves.

Michael Palmer: #baritone
Eleanor Cramer: bass viol
Robin Jeffrey: #cittern
Alison Kinder: bass #viol
Tamsin Lewis: #renaissance #violin
