.ARCTIC CAB
Christmas In Denmark
In the distant land of Denmark,
At the holy Christmas time,
There’s a custom so poetic
That it’s worthy better rhyme. I
’Mong the peasants, poor and
humble,
Who our Lord’s birthday keep
; As a day of thankful gladness.
With a joy that lieth deep.
|
; While the grass and tender herb
I age
Hidden are beneath the snow,
And the rudest blasts of winter
With sharp, icy coldness blow,
Brightly deck they little gift-trees,
Glittering with their gilded fruit
[ Tapers, nuts, and waxen angels
Pendant from each dark green
shoot.
And while thus they show each
other,
By these tokens of their love,
How they value beyond praising |
The great gift of God above,
They forget not humbler creatures
Who their gladness cannot
share,
E'en the little birds of Heaven,
Twittering in the wintry air.
High against a wrall are mounted
Unthrashed oats bound on a
pole,
i Where the snow-birds feast upon
them;
Ever this their Christmas dole. I
And I think the little snow-birds '
Must repay them by their mirth J
Singing sweeter songs of spring- !
time, j
Making glad the barren earth.
—Helen Hays ;

Learn to say “No;” it will be of
more use to you than to be able
to read Latin.
