Hearthwarming Carols

[Nettleglum]

Good evening, dears. Nettie here. As this most festive of times draws nearer, ever nearer, till you can feel the mistletoe at your neck, icicle cold, we all take the time to share those familiar carols of Hearthwarming that we grew up with. I would like to get things crawling with one of the most popular, one I'm certain you've heard many times before. Please, dears, do sing along.

~On the first of Hearthwarming, I knew that I would see~
A Chancellor in the chimney!

~On the second of Hearthwarming, I knew that I would see~
Two Parasprites!
And a Chancellor in the chimney!

~On the third of Hearthwarming, I knew that I would see~
Three Cerberus Heads!
Two Parasprites!
And a Chancellor in the chimney!

Oh, dear. That /does/ get repetitive quickly, doesn't it. Perhaps, in the interest of brevity, I shall cut to the chase, dears? Of course, as you all know well, the song builds to the following by the final verse?

~On the twelfth of Hearthwarming, I knew that I would see~
Twelve Windigos Wailing
Eleven Griffons Growling
Ten Voodoo Zebras
Nine Changelings Charging
Eight Tombs a-crumbling
Seven Vines a-strangling
A Six Headed Hydra

FIVE TIMBER-WOLVES!

Four Quicksand bogs...
Three Cerberus Heads...
Two Parasprites...
~And a Chancellor in the chimney!~

A cornucopia of festive holiday imagery, isn't it? I challenge /anypony/ to listen to that song and not be filled with delightful thoughts of the joys of Hearthwarming.

From the Grimdark Family to all of Equestria, Happy Hearthwarming to all, and to all...
A Good Evening, dears.
