Scott's Rhyme of
Merry Christmas
Ilenp on more wood! The wind is
chill.
IXtil. let It whistle n It will,
We'll keep our Christmas merry still.

The fluent time for testa! cheer.
Anil well our Christian sire of old
Loved when the year Its courso hnd

And broiiRht blithe Christinas back

With all His boMpltnble train.
Domestic mid religious rlto
(Juve honor to the holy nltflit.
On OhrlHtiuiiH ee tlie bolls were runs:
On Christmas eve the mass was sung;
That only night In all the year
Saw the moled priest the chalice rear.
The damsel donned tier ktrtle sheen:
The hall was dressed with holly green;
Forth fo the wood did merry men go
To gather In the mistletoe.
Thep opened., wide tbo baron's hall
To vassal, tenant, serf and all;
THEN CAUR TUB UCBnT MABKEI13 IN.
Power laid his rod of rule asldo.
And Ceremony doffed his pride.
The heir, with rosen In his shoes.
That night might village partner
cIhioho;
All balled with uncontrolled delight
And general voice the happy night
That to the eottugo as the crown
Urought tidings of salvation down.
The fire, with well dried logs supplied.
Went roaring up tho chimney wldo;
The huge. Hull table's oalsen face.
Scrubbed till It sliono. the day togrnco.
Rore then upon its massive board
No mark to part tho squire aud lord.
Then was brought In the lusty brawn
lly old blue coated serving man;
Then the grlui boar's head frowned on
high.
Crested with bnys and rosomnry.
Well can the green barbed rnngor tell
How, when and where the monster fell,
What dogs before bis death he torn
Aud all tho baiting of tho boar.
Tbo wassail round, in good brown
bowls.
Garnished with ribbons, blithely trowla.
Thcro tbo hugo sirloin recked; hard by
Plum porridge stood and Christmas pie,
Nor failed old Scotland to produce
At such high tide her savory goose.
