DANDY - in English
1 'Twas the night before Christmas, when all thro' the house,2 Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse;3 The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,4 In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there;
PAULA - in English 5 The children were nestled all snug in their beds,6 While visions of sugar plums danced in their heads,
HAIRAN - in Portuguese7 And Mama in her 'kerchief, and I in my cap,8 Had just settled our brains for a long winter's nap-
OLGA - in Polish9 When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,10 I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.
ERIKA - in English11 Away to the window I flew like a flash,12 Tore open the shutters, and threw up the sash.
BERNADETTE - in English13 The moon on the breast of the new fallen snow,14 Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below;
DITTE - in Danish15 When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,16 But a minature sleigh, and eight tiny rein-deer,
ESSENCE - in English 17 With a little old driver, so lively and quick,18 I knew in a moment it must be St. Nick.
DANDY - in English19 More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,20 And he whistled, and shouted, and call'd them by name:
DAVID - In German21 "Now! Dasher, now! Dancer, now! Prancer, and Vixen,22 "On! Comet, on! Cupid, on! Dunder and Blixem;
ZACK - in English23 "To the top of the porch! to the top of the wall!24 "Now dash away! dash away! dash away all!"DANDY - in English
25 As dry leaves before the wild hurricane fly,26 When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky
;OLGA - in Polish
27 So up to the house-top the coursers they flew,28 With the sleigh full of Toys - and St. Nicholas too:
LARK - In Turkish29 And then in a twinkling, I heard on the roof30 The prancing and pawing of each little hoof.DITTE - in Danish
31 As I drew in my head, and was turning around,32 Down the chimney St. Nicholas came with a bound:ANGIE - in English
33 He was dress'd all in fur, from his head to his foot,34 And his clothes were all tarnish'd with ashes and soot;ZACK - in English
35 A bundle of toys was flung on his back,36 And he look'd like a peddler just opening his pack:HAIRAN - in Portuguese
37 His eyes - how they twinkled! his dimples how merry,38 His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry;BERNADETTE - in English
39 His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow,40 And the beard of his chin was as white as the snow;PAULA - in English
41 The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth,42 And the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath.DAVID - In German
43 He had a broad face, and a little round belly44 That shook when he laugh'd, like a bowl full of jelly:LARK - In Turkish
45 He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf,46 And I laugh'd when I saw him in spite of myself;ESSENCE - in English
47 A wink of his eye and a twist of his head48 Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread.ERIKA - in English
49 He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,50 And fill'd all the stockings; then turn'd with a jerk,
ANGIE - in English
51 And laying his finger aside of his nose52 And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose.
DANDY - in English
53 He sprung to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,54 And away they all flew, like the down of a thistle:
55 But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight-56 Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good night.
