The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, in hopes that Saint " + hi_liter_begin + document.madlibs.input_your_dog.value + hi_liter_end + " soon would be there. The children were nestled all snug in their beds, while visions of " + hi_liter_begin + document.madlibs.input_candy.value + hi_liter_end + " danced in their heads."; para2 = "

And Mamma in her kerchief, and I in my cap, had just settled our brains for a long winter�s nap. When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter, I " + hi_liter_begin + document.madlibs.input_verb_past1.value + hi_liter_end + " from my bed to see what was the matter. Away to the window I flew like a flash, Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash. The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow gave the luster of midday to objects below, When what to my wondering eyes should appear but a miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer, with a little old driver so lively and quick I knew in a moment it must be Saint " + hi_liter_begin + document.madlibs.input_your_dog.value + hi_liter_end + "."; para3 = "

More rapid than eagles his coursers they came, and he whistled and shouted and called them by name: "Now " + hi_liter_begin + document.madlibs.input_dog1.value + hi_liter_end + "! Now " + hi_liter_begin + document.madlibs.input_dog2.value + hi_liter_end + "! Now " + hi_liter_begin + document.madlibs.input_dog3.value + hi_liter_end + " and Vixen! On Comet! On Cupid! On Donder and Blitzen! To the top of the porch! To the top of the wall! Now dash away, dash away, dash away all!""; para4 = "

As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly, when they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky, so up to the housetop the coursers they flew, with a sleigh full of " + hi_liter_begin + document.madlibs.input_noun_plural1.value + hi_liter_end + " and Saint " + hi_liter_begin + document.madlibs.input_your_dog.value + hi_liter_end + ", too. And then in a twinkling I heard on the roof the prancing and pawing of each little hoof. As I drew in my head and was turning around, down the chimney Saint " + hi_liter_begin + document.madlibs.input_your_dog.value + hi_liter_end + " came with a bound." para5 = "

He was dressed all in fur from his head to his foot, and his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot. A bundle of " + hi_liter_begin + document.madlibs.input_noun_plural1.value + hi_liter_end + " he had flung on his back, and he looked like a peddler just opening his pack. His " + hi_liter_begin + document.madlibs.input_body_part1.value + hi_liter_end + ", how they twinkled! His " + hi_liter_begin + document.madlibs.input_body_part2.value + hi_liter_end + ", how merry! His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry! His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow, and the beard on his chin was as white as the " + hi_liter_begin + document.madlibs.input_adj1.value + hi_liter_end + "."; para5b = "The stump of his pipe he held tight in his teeth, and the smoke it encircled his head like a " + hi_liter_begin + document.madlibs.input_adj2.value + hi_liter_end + ". He had a broad face and a round little belly that shook when he laughed like a bowl full of jelly. He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf, and I laughed when I saw him, in spite of myself. A wink of his eye and a twist of his head soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread."; para6 = "

He spoke not a word but went straight to his work, and filled all the stockings, then turned with a jerk, And laying a finger aside of his nose and giving a nod, up the chimney he rose. He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle, and away they all flew like the down of a thistle. But I heard him exclaim ere he drove out of sight: "" + hi_liter_begin + document.madlibs.input_salutation.value + hi_liter_end + "!""; new_win_content = new_win_html_begin + para1 + para2 + para3 + para4 + para5 + para5b + para6 + new_win_html_end; libsWin = window.open("","",",width=450,height=450,scrollbars=yes"); libsWin.document.write(new_win_content); libsWin.document.close(); } // done hiding-->
