THURSDAY, DECEMBER 22, 1933 Page 6 THE WAYKESVILLE MOUNTAINEER 4 i iThe Night Before Christmas As I drew in my head, and was turning around, Down the chimney St. Nicholas came with a bound. lie was dressed all-in l'ur from his head lj his foot. And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot ; Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse; The stockings were hung by the chimney with care. In hope that St. Nicholas soon would be there; The children were nestled all snug in their beds, While visions of sugar-plums danced through their heads; And mamma in her kerchief, and I in my cap, Had just settled our brains for a long winter s nap. When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter. 1 sprang from my bed to see what was the matter. Away to the window 1 flew like a flash. Tore open the shutters, and threw up the sash. The moon, on the breast of the new-fallen snow. Gave a lustre of mid-day to objects below; When what to my wondering eyes should appear' Hut a miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer. With a little old driver, so lively and quick. I knew in a moment: it must be t, Nick. More rapid than eagles, his coursers they came. And he whistled and shouted and called them by name : "Now. Hasher! now. Dancer! Now. Prancer! now. Vixen! On. Comet ! on. Cupid ! On. Ponder and Hliir.en! To the top of the porch, to the top of the wall! Now dash away, dash away, dash away all!" As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly. When they meet with a obstacle mount to the : y. : So, up to the house-top the coursers they flew, With the sleigh full of toys, and St. Nicholas. . tOO.'. And then in a twinkling. I heard on the roof The prancing and pawing of each little hoof. A bundle of toys he had llung on his back, And he looked like a peddler just opening his pack. His eyes how they twinkled! his dimples how merry ! , His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry, His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow, And the beard on his chin was as white as the snow. The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth, And the smoke, it encircled his head like a wreath. He had a broad face and a little round belly That shook, when he laughed, like a bowl full of jelly, He was chubby and plump a right jolly old elf, And 1 laughed when I saw him in spite of mv self. A wink of his eye. and a twist of his head. Soon gave me to know 1 had nothing to dread. He spake not a won), but went straight to his work. And tilled all the stockings; then turned with a jerk. And laying his ringer aside of his nose. And giving a nod. up the chimney he rose. He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle. And away they all flew like the down of a thistle. But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of ' sight, "Happy Christmas to all. and to all a good-night!"
