GOOD KING WENCESLAS LOOK’D OUT ON THE FEAST OF STEPHEN: WHEN THE SNOW LAY ROUND ABOUT DEEP AND CRISP AND EVEN: BRIGHTLY SHONE THE MOON THAT NIGHT: THO THE FROST WAS CRUEL
BRIGHTLY SHONE THE MOON THAT NIGHT THOUGH THE FROST WAS CRUEL WHEN A POOR MAN CAME IN SIGHT GATH'RING WINTER FUEL
“Bring me flesh, and bring me wine, bring me pine logs hither: Thou and I will see him dine, when we bear them thither.” In his master’s steps he trod, where the snow lay dinted; Heat was in the very sod which the saint had printed. Therefore, Christian men, be sure, wealth or rank possessing, Ye who now will bless the poor, shall yourselves find blessing.
