John Bartlett (1820–1905). Familiar Quotations, 10th ed. 1919.

Edmund Hamilton Sears. (1810–1876)

    Calm on the listening ear of night
  Come Heaven’s melodious strains,
Where wild Judea stretches far
  Her silver-mantled plains.

Christmas Song.

It came upon the midnight clear,
That glorious song of old.

The Angels’ Song.

    For lo! the days are hastening on,
  By prophet-bards foretold,
When with the ever-circling years,
  Comes round the age of gold;
When Peace shall over all the earth
  Its ancient splendors fling
And the whole world send back the song
  Which now the angels sing.

The Angels’ Song.
