just what, it is not mine to say.
But cousins, DEAR when you filed with JOY,
And all on earth to you Is bright and fair;
Seek out some one-sOme homeless orphan boy,
And with him ali your gladnes5 share.
Today he has no home nor place to go,
But wanders cold upon the icy street;
No clothes to Keep from HIM the wind and snow,
No fire by which TO warm his frozen feet.
O. cousins, dear. reach ont to him kindly hand,
And share with him your Christmas book and
toy;
His mother, watching from some other land,
Will bless your kindness to her boy.
But why conine this act to Christmas day?
