The carol started out In the Middle Ages as a circular coun try dance, called a "carole" in j Calif French, according to World Book : Encyclopedia. Some of the early Christians looked askance at dancing, however, and the carol soon lost its steps. The lyrics of the songs that had accompanied the dance be gan to change, too, and event ually the "macaronic" style ap peared. This consisted of tack ing a Latin phrase on to the popular lines, so that the peo ple sang: Make we joy now In this feast In qua Christus natus est . . . They didn't necessarily un derstand the Latin, although It carried on the sense of the song, but the stately Latin words gave them a religious image. In 1223, St. Francis of Assisi started the custom of placing a 1 creche, or miniature Nativity scene, in the church at Christ-; mas time. People began to act I out the events of the Nativity one of the steps In the devolp-' ment of mystery plays and I then to compose carols to sing j with the plays. These led to the French nocls, strictly Christmas songs, which, in turn, inspired i the English carol. j Carols, both secular and re ligi- j ous, flourished in EnRiand until j the Puritans substituted their j more spiritual hymns. These; carried along their less earthly messages for more than a ccn- tury, until a demand for better Christmas music brought back ; ; tne carol.
