    tell me
    that Christmas
    is Kid Stuff . . .

    Give me my scallop-shell of quiet,
    My staff of faith to walk upon,
    My scrip of joy, immortal diet,
    My bottle of salvation,
    My gown of glory, hope’s true gage,
    And thus I’ll take my pilgrimage.
    Sir Walter Raleigh (1552–1618)
