Chant me a rhyme of Christmas Sin* me a Jovial song— And though It Is filled with laughter. Let it be pure and strong. Sing of the hearts brimmed over With the story of the day— Of the echo of childish voices That will not die away. Of the blare of the tasseled bugle. And the timeless clatter and beat Of the drum that throbs to muster Squadrons of scampering feet. But, O, let your voice fall fainter. Till, blent with a minor tone, Tou temper your song with the beauty Of the pity Christ hath shown. And sing one verse for the voiceless; And yet, ere the song be done, A verse for the ears that hear not. And a verse for the sightless one. For though It be time for singing A merry Christmas glee, Let a low, sweet vole© of pathos Run through the melody. —James Whitcomb Riley In December Reader. COMPLIMENTARY TO MIS8 CALHOUN.
