Oh, give me an old-fashioned Christmas card
With hostlers howling in an old inn yard,
With church bells chiming their silver notes,
And jolly red squires in their jolly red coats,
And a good fat goose by the fire that dangles,
And a few more angels and a few less angles.
Turn back, Time, to please this bard,
And give me an old-fashioned Christmas card.
