Where the Wild Goose fits round the frozen pole, And the great Wolf Hounds are baying. 1 come from the Land of the Midnight Sun, Where the Boreal lights are streaming; Where the Ice Pack cracks in thunder tones, Where the North Wind shrieks and the Glacier groans, And the frightened Loons are screaming. There deep in a Cavern with Scoriae walls I laugh when the Storm King rages; He may scream, he may roar, but my Imps work the more, j For the Lord God of Mercy J they trust and adore With nothing but Love for i their wages. With hammer and hatchet and anvil forge. Each day for the love of labor. For Christ and His Angels who stand near the Throne, For the dear little children He claims as His own, They work, as a friend for a neighbor. And once every year, at the midnight hour. They load me with trea sures and toys ? With dear dimpled dollies for nice little girls. With their big blue eyes and their soft yellow curls. And with pistols and drums for the boys. And now I have come in my Lightning Express ? With my Sleigh and my tiny Reindeer. I If you have been noble in action and deed You will find that my Imps have remembered your need: Just look, for your pre sents are here. Now. don't ask to see me, for that cannot be; Though my rainment is rugged and wild. _ vA- _ JKk I am just a kind Spirit, so happv and free Whom none Put the Christ and His Angels can see; And my home is the heart of a child. I was born in a manger in far bethlehem; For such was Our Father's decree; To Science a myth, and to wisdom quite odd. I'm the handmaid of mercy. the halo of God And when you see Him, you see me. And now, little children, I bid you adieu, I must take to my labors again; My Imps, they are calling me back to the Pole. But I'll see you next Christ mas again. as of old; God bless you and keep you 'til then. Along the Way ?mlly Klllette Judge Henry A.
