Kings Christmas Poem
Written by Poet laureate Bridges
For British Royalties Reading

The poet laureate of England. Rob
ert Bridges, revived an ancient custom
when he, like remote predecessor.
assumed the functions Of "versifcator
regis" (versitier of the king, He avail
ed himself of the right to address
the sovereign not only on state occa-
Sions, but at the time of n Christian
festival, and sent poem which was
reproduced in all the English speaking
countries of the world.
The poem, which is entitled Christ.
mas Eve-Pax Hominibus Bonae Vol.
untatis'' cPeace to men of good will'')
follows:
A frosty Christmas eve when the stars
were shining
Fared | forth alone where westward falls
the hill.
And from many village in the water'd
Distant music reached me. peals of bells
a-rlnging.
The consolidated sounds ran sprnkling on
earth's floor
AS the dark vault above with stars was
spangled o'er.
Then sped my thoughts TO keep that first
Christmas of all
When the shepherds, watching by their
folds ere the dawn
Heard music in the fields and. marveling.
could not tell
Whether it were angels or the bright
stars singing.
Now blessed be the towers that crown
England SO fair.
That stand up strong In prayer unto God
for our souls:
Blessed be their founders, said l. and our
country folk
Who are ringing for Christ I'm the belfries
tonight
With arms lifted to clutch the rafting
ropes that race
Into the dark above, and the mad romp-
ing din
But to me. heard afar. 1t was heavenly
music.
Angels song comforting as the comfort
of Christ
When he spake tenderly to his sorrowfui
flock
The old words came to me, by the riches
of time
MeIlow'd and transfgured. as | stood on
the hill
Hark ming in the aspec, of the eternal
silence.
The poem is written In old English
meter after the fashion of the early
English writer's Literary people were
greatly interested in the revival of this
meter, which has been employed hut
little In recent years

Christmas Eve In Moravia.

In Moravia ut midnight of Christmas
eve the town watchman of every vii
lage blows horn. sings a Christmas
carol and then indulges in the pro-
longed and vigorous cracking of big
whip provided for the occasion. This
latter custom is intended to recall the
days of the Tartar invasion of Mora
via. when the people were logged like
beasts Of burden by their fierce and
cruel conquerors.

Tho Birds, YuIetide Gift.

The Christmas feeding of the birds
is prevalent in many of the provinces
Of Norway and Sweden. Bunches of
oats are placed on the roofs of houses,
on trees and fences, for them to feed
upon. Every poor man and every head
of family saves penny or two to
buy bunch of oats for the birds to
have their Christmas. 1t is beautiful
custom and one that might well be
adopted In other countries.
