CmTsTSIAs IN ENGLAND.

on Christmas eve the bells were rung;
On christmas eve the mass was sung;
That only night in all the year
Saw the stoled priest the ehalice rear,
Then opened wide the baron's hall,
To vassal, tenant, serf and all;
Power laid his rod Of rule aside,
And ceremony dOffed his pride.
All hailed with uncontrolled delight
And generous voice the happy night
That to the cottage, as the crown,
Brought tidings OF salvation down.
England was "Merrie England" when
Old Christmas brought its sports again.
Twas Christmas broached the mightiest ale
Twas Christmas told the merriest tale;
And Christmas frolics oft would cheer
A poor mans heart through half the year.
