Description
It was Christmas Eve. All day long crowds of gayly dressed people had walked the streets; basking in the bright wintry sunshine. Sleigh after sleigh went dashing past; with merrily jingling bells; freighted with rosy cheeks; and bright eyes; and youthful faces; all aglow with happiness.
But the sun must set on Christmas Eve; as on all other days; and redly; threateningly; angrily; he sank down in the far west. Dark; sullen clouds came rolling ominously over the heavens; the wind blew piercingly cold; accompanied with a thin; drizzling rain that froze ere it fell.
