TWELFTH NIGHT

THREE wild kings come to the town, Riding with one mind; Scarlet, cinnamon, stormy blue, Stream their cloaks behind.
Call the wild kings through the night, Standing each at door; "Open. There is here a gift, Kept for you of yore."
"Here is gold," saith the wild king, He the blue-clad one; "Here is frankincense," saith he, All in cinnamon.
Saith the king in scarlet cloak, Standing there at door; "Here is myrrh, a bitter thing, Kept for you of yore."
