Revelry

Revelry.
Hail Christmas the debonair king
and his innocent fun,
Come join in his rollicking pranks,
call Depression a fool,
With a jest and a song just trip in
the shimmering sun By runnel and pool.
Bring forth the glad wine for your friends and your debtors to sup,
They'll brighten the world with their laughter and chatter, I wish,
All soberly quaff from the bountiful
glittering cup—
To-day what's amiss?
