For this year's main carol, I went with Persuasion. I suppose that means Emma is 2019?
Blurb: A paean to Sir Walter Elliot, to the tune of the Christmas carol, O Tannenbaum.
I have also posted this on another site.
O Baronet!
I.
O Baronet - (Sir Idiot - )
Your looks are so unchanging.
O Baronet - (Sir Idiot - )
Your influence's wide-ranging.
Your age remains a mystery.
Your face: an angel's gift to thee.
O Baronet - (Sir Idiot - )
Your looks are so unchanging.
II.
O Baronet - (Sir Idiot - )
How you protect your fam'ly -
O Baronet - (Sir Idiot - )
Against their own mad folly.
No lowly sailor they shall wed,
Bringing shame upon their head.
O Baronet - (Sir Idiot - )
How you protect your family.
III.
O Baronet - (Sir Idiot - )
The first among your neighbors -
O Baronet - (Sir Idiot - )
You guide them in their labors.
They look to you, their leading star,
To show them who and what they are.
O Baronet - (Sir Idiot - )
The first among your neighbors.
IV.
O Baronet - (Sir Idiot - )
'Thrift' is a vulgar subject.
O Baronet - (Sir Idiot - )
You must maintain self-respect!
A budget should not be your chore.
Leave deprivations to the poor.
O Baronet - (Sir Idiot - )
'Thrift' is a vulgar subject.
/THE END/
If you like it, feel free to read through (sing through) the other Austen carols I have written, or even leave a comment or a heart to tell me about it.
