the Arabian breeze will sometimes waft the freshness of the distant
fields to the weary pilgrim of the desert。
Stranger and sojourner as I am in the land… though for me no
social hearth may blaze; no hospitable roof throw open its doors;
nor the warm grasp of friendship welcome me at the threshold… yet I
feel the influence of the season beaming into my soul from the happy
looks of those around me。 Surely happiness is reflective; like the
light of heaven; and every countenance; bright with smiles; and
glowing with innocent enjoyment; is a mirror transmitting to others
the rays of a supreme and ever…shining benevolence。 He who can turn
churlishly away from contemplating the felicity of his
fellow…beings; and can sit down darkling and repining in his
loneliness when all around is joyful; may have his moments of strong
excitement and selfish gratification; but he wants the genial and
social sympathies which constitute the charm of a merry Christmas。
