EARLY CHRISTMAS MASS IN IRE.

LAND.
By Father ]. B. Dollard.
Slipping down the Curlew mountains
to the early Christmas Mass,
When the shadows on the heather
and the rime is on the grass
Want may chill our highland cottage;
trouble bide with us Away,
But the Saviour makes us happy on
His holy Christmas Day.
Il must wake my dear ones early on
this morn of peace and Joy,
Little pet-lamb, pretty Nora, sturdy
Neil, my comely boy,
When the hearth is clean and cosy
and the dancing flames are gay,
And the kettle croons welcome to
the coming Christmas Day.
Darkness fingers on the valley and
the fairy-haunted glen,
Eastward now the break Of morning
brings the peace of God to men.
Near the mountain-rim-irst jewel of
The Christ Child's diadem,
Burns a star of radiant beauty like
the star Of Bethlehem!
Wake We now, my sleeping treasures,
wake ye now, your mothers JOY,
Pretty Nora, drOwsy lambkin, blue.
eyed Neil, my laughing boy
For the shadows on the heather, and
the rime is on the grass,
And the angels hurry eastward to the
early Christmas Mass!
See above yon ivied abbey, where
Gods servants prayed of old,
Fiery pillars in the heavens-bars of
silver, shafts Of gold
Swing the gates of glory open, shin
ing souls unnumbered pass,
Let us hurry down to meet them at
the early Christmas Mass!
Down the mountain, up the valley,
from the riverside and glen,
Through the CHEEKY, chatting people,
stately women, stalwart men;
Guard, oh, guard them, God of Erin!
bitter sorrow theirs, alas!
Many heart shall bleed in exile ere
another Christmas Mass!
Lift thy dropping face, my Erin, God
has heard thy bitter moan,
Tho His hand rest heavy on thee, it's
to make thee more His own.
Faith has died where nations flour.
ished-earthly gain His gifts
surpass,
when He greets His gathered people
at the early Christmas Mass!

THE WANDERER,

Gan Irish Christmas Custom.)
BY Bryan Mayo.
Come, sweep the threshold clean
And spread the festal board!
Tonight our heavenly Queen
Is wondering with her Lord.
BY Herod's hatred driven
From Bethlehem's manger-home.
The Lord of earth and heaven,
Unhoused, abroad doth roam.
Heap high the festal board,
Your whitest linen spread
For Mary and her Lord
Who roam uncontrolled.
Perchance her wandering feet
May pause beside our door;
Her voice for shelter sweet
The fisherman implore.
Oh, for such royal Guest,
If hither wend His feet,
Be poured of gifts our best
To give Him welcome meet.
That here He may abide,
Who of earth's poor is fain,
Our door be opened wide,
Our candle lit in pane!
For what of good have we
To light our earthly lot,
OF love, of hope, that He
To us hath rendered not?
And so in thanks be given
Our best, in welcome bright,
To Christ, the King of heaven,
Who roams abroad tonight!
oh, never the reproof
Be ours, nor word Of DOOM
That meath our cottage roof
For Christ we had no room!
Nor e'er the bitter shame
Be ours of Bethlehem
That to our doors they came
And found them shut on them!
So sweep the hearthstone clean
And spread the Christmas board !!
Tonight our heavenly Queen
Is wandering with her Lord.
Tonight her virgin feet
May consecrate our floor,
And leave her blessing sweet
On US for evermore.
