      A Bell

      Table of Contents

      Had I the power

      To cast a bell that should from some grand tower,

      At the first Christmas hour,

      Out-ring,

      And fling

      A jubilant message wide,

      The forgèd metals should be thus allied;—

      No iron Pride,

      But soft Humility and rich-veined Hope

      Cleft from a sunny slope,

      And there should be

      White Charity,

      And silvery Love, that knows nor Doubt nor Fear,

      To make the peal more clear;

      And then, to firmly fix the fine alloy,

      There should be Joy!

      Christmas Elves

      Table of Contents

      If you walk on Christmas eve,

      And the moon doth shine aright,

      You will see them weave,—

      Nimble gnome, and fay and sprite,—

      Devious dances in the lustrous lunar light.

      Round and round the holly bole

      Will they dart and glide and spring;

      And a tripping troll

      Will they in a chorus sing;

      Threading now in broken, now in linkèd ring.

      Berry bright, berry bright,

      Be the love about your hearth!

      Leafy green, leafy green,

      Be perennial your mirth!

      Sturdy as a holly bole be your footing of the earth!

      These white spirits of old Yule,

      Happy you who hear their tune!

      Joy with you shall rule,

      Life for you shall
