Blessed hills, that heard the song Of the glorious angel-throng, Swelling all your slopes along. Happy shepherds, on whose ear Fell the tidings glad and dear, "God to man is drawing near." Happy, happy, Bethlehem, Judah's least but brightest gem, Where the rod from Jesse's stem, Scion of a princely race, Sprung in Heaven's own perfect grace, Yet in feeble lowliness. This, the woman's promised seed, Abram's mighty Son indeed; Succourer of earth's great need. This the victor in our war, This the glory see afar, This the light of Jacob's star! Happy Judah, rise and own Him the heir of David's throne David's Lord, and David's Son. Let the dayspring from on high. That arose in Judah's sky. Cover earth eternally. Babe of Bethlehem, to Thee, Infant of eternity, Everlasting glory be!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6751</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sit down before fact as a little child, be prepared to give up every preconceived notion, follow humbly wherever and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14896]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sit down before fact as a little child, be prepared to give up every preconceived notion, follow humbly wherever and to whatever abysses nature leads, or you shall learn nothing.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14896</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He is forever poised between a cliché and an indiscretion. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20759]]></link><description><![CDATA[He is forever poised between a cliché and an indiscretion.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20759</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How many time do I love, again? Tell me how many beads there are  In a silver chain  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25622]]></link><description><![CDATA[How many time do I love, again? Tell me how many beads there are  In a silver chain   Of evening rain    Unravelled from the trembling main     And threading the eye of a yellow star:--      So many time do I love again.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25622</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Too long a sacrifice can make a stone of the heart. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54605]]></link><description><![CDATA[Too long a sacrifice can make a stone of the heart.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54605</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The new year begins in a snow-storm of white vows. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64515]]></link><description><![CDATA[The new year begins in a snow-storm of white vows.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64515</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Oh, I have roamed o'er many lands, And many friends I've met;  Not one fair scene or kindly smile ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26921]]></link><description><![CDATA[Oh, I have roamed o'er many lands, And many friends I've met;  Not one fair scene or kindly smile   Can this fond heart forget.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26921</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Too much tail.
