The flying cloud, the frosty light;
The year is dying in the night;

The faithless coldness of the times;

But ring the fuller minstrel in.

To utter love more sweet than praise.

He watches from his mountain walls,
And like a thunderbolt he falls.

Alfred, Lord Tennyson
Tis a morning pure and sweet, And a dewy splendour falls On the little flower that clings To the turrets and the walls; 'Tis a morning pure and sweet, And the light and shadow fleet; She is walking in the meadow, And the woodland echo rings; In a moment we shall meet; She is singing in the meadow, And the rivulet at her feet Ripples on in light and shadow To the ballad that she sings.

Ring out the old, ring in the new,
Ring, happy bells, across the snow:
The year is going, let him go;
Ring out the false, ring in the true.

Alfred, Lord Tennyson
Ring out the grief that saps the mind, for those that were here we see no more.
