The Lord of Misrule

Reading about this lovely tradition
Which, in England, used to take place
Over the twelve days to Christmas.
Banned during the times of Cromwell of course
But it seems to have been a good time for
Jesters and pranksters.
Tradition no longer in use
But surely there are still pranksters around.

Author's Note
Most pranks were in good fun but, as usual, some could be very mean.
