29 December is the #5thDayofChristmas, and the feast of #StThomasofCanterbury.
There are a number of #medieval #songs for St Thomas, but very few from the #earlymodern period, as his cult was outlawed during the #Reformation.
Here is Clangat Tuba, an early #Tudor #carol for his day from the #Ritson #Manuscript (BL Add. MS 5665)
