Explore "Christmas Canticle" by Edna St. Vincent Millay on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
The Angel: / Thou sinful Soul, how wilt thou feel, / On Christmas Eve when the oxen kneel, / For all thy vows to Christ so dear, / Which thou didst break in this bad year?
Man: / Full of fear- oh, full of fear! / I will fall to my knees in yellow straw; / I will clasp my hands in terror and awe! / I will lift my tears and to Mary appeal- / On Christmas Eve when the oxen kneel!
