poor Cyprian was gazing at Theign standing above,
tho' harboring for Yashmeen an unrequited love

The Chums and Pugnax, camped out in Central Park,
were decoding a message that'd come in from the dark

Webb's ghost hovered, an eerie neighbor,
bearing silent witness to the sufferings of labor

S Vibe and F Walker were colluding, that's certain,
while at R Vibe's the party started after the last show's curtain

Dalley gazed at the visage of the mysterious stranger
but succumbed to a drink that would quietly change her

Gambler Reef on the train, with Ruperta re-met,
was offering himself to the canine Muffette

Frank, while pursuing an explosive career,
was flying with the daughter of the Tarahumara seer

Though Yale, Belgium and Goettingen had challenged Kit's wits,
on this night he was headed Eastward under the protection of the TWITs

Lake, and Deuce, wondered if it were fair if
the daughter of the storm went and married the sheriff

>From the Vormance Expedition, though fraught with doom,
could be heard an ocarina playing a Christmas tune...

Root Tubsmith was beating the house with a system based on vectors,
and Merle was working on movies that used only light for projectors

'Zo Meatman was heard to exclaim "Oh, Hurrah!"
as the oilmen ceased momentarily their hostilities in Shamballah

Lew conferred intensely with the real Inspector Sands
on the value of the Tarot trumps when dealt in poker hands

The Chums, having decoded their briefing, went aloft their lines to single
and the girls from the Lollipop Lounge climbed aboard to mingle

The Cohen appeared, accompanied by the Beavers of the Brain
and cried, "To all a Happy - what was the occasion again?"
