Christmas carrols to be sung in the Christmas holy days. [1728-1800]

An 18th century collection of nineteen Christmas carols, most rare and seemingly unknown, collected by John Beal around 1728. The first seventeen carols are in the same hand, presumably Beal's, while the last two are contributed by another individual, possibly one of the later owners of the volume, Jane Penneck Robinson or William Robinson Hill. Robinson and Hill were grandmother and grandson and both lived in Helston, Cornwall; their link to Beal is unknown.

52, [38] p., bound ; 19 cm.
