With such pomp as this is Merry Christmas ushered in, though only a single star heralded the first Christmas. And in memory of that day the Swedish peasants dance on straw ; and the peasant-girls throw straws at the timbered roof of the hall, and for every one that sticks in a crack shall a groomsman come to their wedding. Merry Christmas indeed ! For pious souls there shall be church songs and sermons, but for Swedish peasants, brandy and nut-brown ale in wooden bowls ; and the great Yule-cake... crowned with a cheese, and garlanded with apples, and upholding a three-armed candle- stick over the Christmas feast. They may tell tales, too, of Jons Lundsbracka, and Lunkenfus, and the great Biddai Finke of Pingsdaga.^ 1 Titles of Swedish popular tales.
Digitized by Google APPENDIX 447 And now the glad, leafy midsummer, full of blossoms and the song of nightingales, is come ! Saint John has taken the flowers and festival of heathen Balder ; and in every village there is a May-pole fifty feet high, with wreaths and roses and ribbons streaming in the wind, and a noisy weathercock on top, to tell the village whence the wind cometh and whither it g^th.
