Anyone have additional coins from the 1360s? If so, please post them soon! We can plan to drop back to the decade of the 1350s starting tomorrow morning.
I suppose it is somewhat fitting for us to be on in the 1350s for Christmas, as the earliest extant English Christmas carol, "A child is boren amonges man" dates to this time and seems to have ushered in a Golden age of English Christmas carols. Here are the lyrics:

Quote:
Hand by hand we shall us take,
And joy and bliss shall we make,
For the devil of heck man hath forsake,
And God's Son is made our make.
A child is born amongst man,
And in that child was no WAM; [sin]
That child is God, that child is man,
And in that child our life began.
Sinful man, be blithe and glad
For your marriage; thy peace is grad [proclaimed]
When Christ was born;
Come to Christ; thy peace is grad;
For thee was his blood shed,
Who were forlorn. [lost]
Sinful man, be blithe and bold,
For heaven is both bought and sold,
Every foot!
Come to Christ; thy peace is told,
For thee he gave a hundredfold
His life to bote. [to redeem you]
Hand by hand we shall us take,
And joy and bliss shall we make,
For the devil of heck man hath forsake,
And God's Son is made our make.
A child is born amongst man,
And in that child was no WAM; [sin]
That child is God, that child is man,
And in that child our life began.
Sinful man, be blithe and glad
For your marriage; thy peace is grad [proclaimed]
When Christ was born;
Come to Christ; thy peace is grad;
For thee was his blood shed,
Who were forlorn. [lost]
Sinful man, be blithe and bold,
For heaven is both bought and sold,
Every foot!
Come to Christ; thy peace is told,
For thee he gave a hundredfold
His life to bote. [to redeem you]
