'Twas the night before holiday, when all through the place, Not a(n) animal was stirring, not even a(n) animal. The plural noun were hung by the place with care, In hopes that famous person soon would be there. The family member were nestled all snug in their furniture, While visions of plural food danced in their heads; And family member in her clothing item, and I in my clothing item, Had just settled down for a long winter’s verb. When out on the place there arose such a(n) noun, I verb from the furniture to see what was the matter. Away to the place I verb like a flash, Verb 4-ed open the object and verb 5-ed up the sash. The adjective moon on the noun of the new-fallen noun, Gave the luster of object to objects below, When, what to my body part should appear, But a miniature vehicle, and eight tiny animal. With a little old occupation, so lively and quick, I knew in a moment it must be famous person. More rapid than plural animal his plural noun they came, And he verb 6-ed, and verb 7-ed, and called them by name: "Now, name! Now, name! Now, name and name! On, name! On, name! On, name and name!" And then, in a(n) verb I heard on the object The verb 9-ing and verb 10-ing of each little body part. As I verb 11-ed in my place, and was verb 12-ing around, Down the place famous person came with a(n) noun. He was dressed all in plural clothing item, from his body part to his body part, And his noun were all tarnished with plural substance and plural substance; A bundle of plural object he had flung on his body part, And he looked like a(n) occupation, just opening his object. He had a(n) body type face and a little round body part, That verb 13-ed when he verb 14-ed, like a bowlful of noun. He was adjective and adjective, a right jolly occupation, And I verb 15-ed when I saw him, in spite of myself. And laying his object aside of his body part, He verb 16-ed to his vehicle, to his plural animal gave a(n) noun, And away they all verb 17-ed, like the down of a(n) noun: But I heard him verb, ere he verb 19-ed out of sight— "Happy holiday to all, and to all a good time of day!"
