CHRISTMAS PAGEANT Suzanne Lake, Madonnag Jugglers Troop: Sue Good, Fran Blanco, Becki Rob- inson, Sue Wilde, Jugg- lerg Belinda Rose. Madonna 8: Monks Small Crowd



Page 66 text:

It is Christmas Eve in Paris. The snow slowly drifts earthward in little swirls, catching the holiday spirit of a small crowd lingering in the square before the great, cold, gray-stone steps of the ancient Cathedral of Notre Dame. Suddenly in the distance a tinkling of bells heralds the com- ing of a gay troupe of jugglers who whirl into the square, dancing and tossing their balls into the air in hope of gain- ing a few pennies. Presently a tattered scamp mischievously snatches a juggler's cap and darts off, pursued quickly by the angry troupe, in turn followed by the aroused crowd. Soon the square is empty and still. In the chancel of the great Cathedral stands a wooden statue, an image of the Blessed Virgin, Mother of the Holy Child, about whom is wound a legend familiar to all the inhabitants of the town along the Seine. For at this time on Christmas Eve the peasants and the nobility, the monks and the children, lay at her feet their most cherished gifts. And, should the perfect gift be given, the Image, for one fleeting instant, would come alive to bless the giver as the chimes in the ancient Cathedral tolled the midnight hour. Yet through the years the statue has stood--unmoved and withdrawn. Dusk approaches. The doors of the Cathedral are opened and the candles surrounding the Madonna are lit. Monks in their garbs of gray and reverent townsfolk pass into the Cathedral to kneel and lay before the Image their most treasured possessions Hopefully they depart, and soon the great Cathedral is tranquil and hushed ----- the face of the Madonna glowing in the flickering light of the pale candles. Then from the cold, dark shadows creeps the troupe of ragged jugglers. Hesitantly they enter the Cathedral to wonder at the gifts but, fearing the return of the monks, they flee: yet one, a bit bolder than the rest, gazes with solemn veneration at the lovely Image. His heart is sad for he has nought to give. But in an instant he is gay, for he will dance for the lovely Madonna. 60
