- The "Wren" Boys
The "Wren" boys are boys who dress in funny clothes and go around from house to house on Saint Stephen's day. They carry a wren with them. When they enter each house they say the following rhyme -
"The wren, the wren, the king of all birds,
On Saint Stephen's day she was caught in the furze
Up with the kettle and down with then pan
Give me a penny to bury the wren".
They carry a musical instrument with them. When they go into a house one plays the music and the others dance. They get a few pence in every house. In the evening they divide the money between them and they buy sweets for it.
