  • "The Boar's Head Carol" (In Honor of King Arthur's Court and a tradition that goes back to Anglo-Saxon times: celebrate Christmas with the "rarest dish in all the land"!)
    • The boar's head in hand bear I, 
    • Bedeck'd with bays and rosemary. And I pray you, my masters, be merry Quot estis in convivio (Translation: As many as are in the feast)

      CHORUS Caput apri defero (Translation: The boar's head I offer) Reddens laudes Domino (Translation: Giving praises to the Lord)

      The boar's head, as I understand,
      Is the rarest dish in all this land,
      Which thus bedeck'd with a gay garland
      Let us servire cantico. (Translation: Let us serve with a song)

       
      Our steward hath provided this
      In honor of the King of Bliss;
      Which on this day to be served is
      In Reginesi atrio. (Translation: In the hall of Queen’s [College, Oxford])
  • The Gawain Game! Let's see which teams win the extra points and which ones lose their heads! 
  • Let's begin Chaucer! (go to the bottom of Unit 3 tab)
