Evening Republican, Volume 14, Number 292, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 9 December 1910 — Bells A-ringing. [ARTICLE]
Bells A-ringing.
Two sorry things there be— Aye. three— A nest from which the nestlings have been taken. A lamb forsaken, A red rose by the wild wind rudely shaken. Of glad things there be more— Aye, tour— A bird above the old nest blithely singing. A red rose clinging In safety to a rock. a. shepherd bringing A lamb found in his arms and Christmas bells a-rlnging! -Willis B. Allen.
