In somer when the shawes be sheyne,
And leves be large and long,
Hit is full merry in feyre foreste
To here the foulys song.
To see the dere draw to the dale
And leve the hilles hee,
And shadow him in the leves grene
Under the green-wode tree.
Hit befell on Whitsontide
Early in a May mornyng,
The Sonne up faire can shyne,
And the briddis mery can syng
~ May in the green wode

Coolest. Thing. Evar.
LOVED that! I've never seen stuff like that, and would love to.
I've only ever seen jingle-dancing on natives! I wonder if the natives got it from the celts, or the celts from the natives??
Anyway, Happy Beltane! ^.^
Happy Bealtaine!
