A Christmas Carol

"A Christmas Carol" by George MacDonald captures an intimate nativity moment: Mary cradles the infant Jesus, singing a lullaby in which she envisions the golden crown already glowing in his hair. Her song moves between tender mother-love and awe at the child's divine destiny — she kisses his hands and feet, prophesying that men will worship him. Yet when the baby opens his eyes wide and looks up at her, her song falters and she falls silent, overcome by something she cannot say aloud.
