An earthly tree a heavenly fruit it bear, A case of clay contained a crown immortal. A crown of crowns, a King whose coSt and care Redeemed poor man, whose race before was thrall To death, to doom, to pains of everlaSting, By His sweet death, scorns, Stripes, and often faSting. A Star above the Stars, a sun of light, Whose blessed beams this wretched earth bespread With hope of heaven and of God's Son the sight, Which in our flesh and sinful soul lay dead. O faith, O hope, O joys renowned for ever, O lively life that deathless shall persevere. Then let us sing the lullabys of sleep To this sweet babe, born to awake us all From drowsy sin that made old Adam weep, And by his fault gave to mankind the fall. For lo! this day, the birth day, day of days, Summons our songs to give Him laud and praise.  Style.display='';$(this).getParent().Style.display='none';">less

Yeats When you are old and gray and full of sleep And nodding by the fire, take down this book, And slowly read, and dream of the soft look Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep; How many loved your moments of glad grace, And loved your beauty with love false or true; But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you, And loved the sorrows of your changing face. And bending down beside the glowing bars, Murmur, a little sadly, how love fled And paced upon the mountains overhead, And hid his face amid a crowd of Stars.  Style.display='';$(this).getParent().Style.display='none';">less
