was king. In December the king fell
sick, and the nation was filed with
anxiety 1t was decided that the Christ
mas should be silent one.
Silent Chrlstmases were proclaimed
In the protectornte of Cromwell. The
festival was altogether abolished, and
the display of the emblems of the ma.
tivity was held to he seditious. The
change was most notable In London.
There was silence In the Strand. The
church bells We're still St Pauls lift.
ed its white roofs over the Thames
and Westminster abbey its towers. but
the tides of happy people in holiday at
tire no more poured In and out
The holly and Ivy We're no more seen
In the windows Of the rich and poor.
The Yule fires were not kindled, nor
the carols sung. Bells. indeed, rang
out OH the frosty mir. but how different
from the chimes Of old! They were
the hand bells of the heralds, in simple
garb, passing from street to street,
shifting the air and crying out: mo
Christmas! No ChristmasF
