...had just settled down for a long winter's...

Not yet, but almost. Christmas Eve has only a few minutes left. The kids are indeed nestled in their beds, and we'll soon be following suit. Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night...

Then pealed the bells more loud and deep:
“God is not dead, nor doth He sleep;
The wrong shall fail, the right prevail
With peace on earth, good will to men.”


Longfellow 1864 (I heard The Bells on Christmas Day)
