"T'was the night before Christmas when all thro' the house,
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse;
The Stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there;
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of sugar plums danc'd in their heads"

Written in 1822 by
Dr. Clement C. Moore
