$&&& ING out, wild bells, to the wild sky.
t~) The flying cloud, the frosty light;
■*- *• The year is dying in the night;
mm^.m Ring out. wild bells, and, let him die!
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!
Ring out the grief that saj)s the mmd,
For those that here we see no more;
Ring out the feud of rich and poor,
Ring in redress to all mankind!
Ring out the slowly dying cause,
And ancient forms of party strife,
Ring in the nobler modes of life,
With sweeter manners, purer laws!
66A Happy New Year, 1914"
Ring Out, Wild Bells
Ring out the want, the care, the sin,
The faithless coldness oj the times:
Ring out, ring out, my mournful rhymes
But ring the fuller Minstrel in!
Ring out false pride in place and blood.
The civic slander and the spite;
Ring in the love of truth and right,
Ring in the common love oj Good!
Ring out old shapes of foul disease.
Ring out the narrow lust oj gold;
Ring out the thousand wars of old.
Ring in the thousand years of peace!
Ring in the valiant man wad free,
The larger heart, the kindlier hand;
Ring out the darkness of the land —
Ring in the CHRIST that is to be/
— Lord Tennyson.
