CAROL<br />
Aʟ Rose is blowing,<br />
Sprung from a tender root,<br />
Of ancient seers’ foreshowing,<br />
Of Jesse promised fruit;<br />
Its fairest bud unfolds to light<br />
And in the dark midnight,<br />
Amid the winter cold,<br />
A spotless Rose unfolds.<br />
The Rose which I am singing,<br />
Where<strong>of</strong> Isaiah said,<br />
Is from its sweet root springing,<br />
In Mary, purest Maid;<br />
For, through our God’s great love <strong>and</strong> might,<br />
And in the dark midnight,<br />
Amid the winter cold,<br />
The blessèd Babe she bare.<br />
