Clement Clarke Moore quotes:
-
As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly, when they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky. So up to the house-top the coursers they flew, with the sleigh full of toys, and St. Nicholas too.
-
His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow, and the beard of his chin was as white as the snow.
-
Now, 'Dasher!' now, 'Dancer!' now, 'Prancer' and 'Vixen!' On, 'Comet!' on, 'Cupid!' on, 'Donner' and 'Blitzen!'
-
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there.
-
T'was the night before Christmas, when all through the house, not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.
-
He had a broad face and a little round belly, that shook, when he laughed, like a bowlful of jelly.
-
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,while visions of sugar plums danced in their heads.
