[recto:] A prosperous New Year to you. [verso:] Seasons Greetings / Sweet hour of twilight, ah what are the joys / Of joy compared to thee! / When roaming thro' the forest old / Or by the heaving sea. / 'Tis a holy time, this evening hour, / E'en if with those we love, / There is a deeper, quick'ning pow'r / Steals o'er us from ab[ove.] / Sara.
