    ‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all through 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 sugarplums danced in their heads;
    Clement Clarke Moore (1779–1863)

    But I’ll do my best a gude wife ay to be,
    For auld Robin Gray he is kind unto me.
    —Lady Anne Lindsay (1750–1825)
