lyrics

Festival

There is snow on the ground,
And the valleys are cold,
And a midnight profound
Blackly squats o'er the world;
But a light on the hilltops half-seen hints
of feastings unhallowed and old.

There is death in the clouds,
There is fear in the night,
For the dead in their shrouds
Hail the sun's turning flight.
And chant wild in the woods as they dance
round a Yule-altar fungous and white.

To no gale of Earth's kind
Sways the forest of oak,
Where the thick boughs entwined
By mad mistletoes choke,
For these pow'rs are the pow'rs of dark,
from the graves of the lost Druid-folk.

And may thou to such deeds
Be an abbot and priest,
Singing cannibal greeds
At each devil-wrought feast,
And to all the incredulous world
shewing dimly the sign of the beast.

HP Lovecraft 1925 (with minor edits)
