One of my favorite holiday memories was watching a dramatization of this narrated by Denholm Elliot. It was on our local PBS station when I was a teen. My father gave me a beautiful book with the poem illustrated with woodcuts.
Thank you for pointing (re-tweeting) the way to the blog posting A Cup of Kindness at PaganSquare — it should be re-printed and made available at planning meetings for many of the Pagan conferences …. so much vital goodwill on all sides …. Hospitality is proven again to be one of the strongest, deepest magical and Pagan Qualities ….
