And then in the twinkling I heard on the roof the praising empowerment of each other. As during my head and was turning around down the chimney St. Nicholas came up for he was dressing
013all four from his head to his foot. His clothes were all turnish with ashes and stole toys he had flung on his back and he looked like a feather just opening his back. His eyes how they twinkle. His dimples how merry. His cheeks were like roses. He looks like a cherry. His dirt little mouth was drawn up like a goat. And the beard on his chin was white as snow. for stump of a pipe. He held tight in his teeth and was smoked in his head like a be. He had a bro face and a little round belly that shook when he laughed like a bowl full of jelly. He has a tummy and plump right jolly old Eve. And I laugh when I saw him and spell on myself. A wink over his eyes
014and a trace over his head soon gave me to know I had nothing to drive. His book not a word, but went straight to his word, and a field of stony went with a jerk, and lying his finger aside of his, and gave him a no ch. He rose, he sprang his leaf to his chin, gave a whistle, and away they all flew like a vow of a tisle. But I heard in him, he drove out of a sight.
