Ghe night >Before Christmas

'7-WAS the night before Christmas when all
Il through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that ST. Nicholas soon would be there
The children nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of sugarp plums danced in their heads
And mamma IN her kerchief, and in my cap
Had just settled Cur brains for long winters nap
When out on the lawn there such a clatter
] sprang from my bed to see what was the matter.
Away the window flew like a fash,
Tore open the shutter, and threw up the sash.
THE moon the breast of the new-fallen snow
Gave a lustre OF midday 10 objects below;
When what TO my wondering eyes should appear
But miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer,
With little old driver, SO lively and quick, =
| knew in a moment it must be ST. Nick. -:
More rapid than eagles his coursers they came, =
And he whisted and shouted and called shem by
name. {.
"Now Dasher now, Dancer! now Prancer and
Vixen, y
On Comet! on, Cupid. on Donder and Blitzen!--
To the top of the porch, TO the top of the wall,
Now, dash away, dash away, dash away all!' a.

As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly,
When they meet with obstacle mount TO

With sleigh full of toys-and ST. Nicholas, too.
And then, in a twinkling, heard on the roof
The prancing and paving of each little hoof. <
AS drew in my head, and was turning around,
Down the chimney ST. Nicholas came with bound
He was dressed all in fur from his head to his foot
