Past three o'clock
Past three o' clock,
And a cold frosty morning
Past three o' clock,
Good morrow, masters all !
Born is a baby,
Gentle as may be
Son of the eternal
Father supernal
Past three o'clock etc...
Seraph choir singeth
Angel bell ringeth
Hark how they rhyme it
Time it and chime it
Past three o' clock etc...
Mid earth rejoices
Hearing such voices
Ne'ertofore so well
Carolling nowell
Past three o' clock etc...
Hinds o'er the pearly
Dewy lawn early
Seek the high stranger
Laid in the manger
Past three o' clock etc...
Cheese from the dairy
Bring they for Mary
And not for money
Butter and honey
Past three o' clock etc...
Light out of star-land
Leadeth from far land
Princes, to meet him
Worship and greet him
Past three o' clock etc...
Myrrh from the coffer
Incense they offer
Nor is the golden
Nugget withholden
Past three o' clock etc...
Thus say : I pray you
Up, sirs, and stay you
Till ye confess him
Likewise, and bless him
Past three o' clock etc...
