Two Hymns Plagiarized with an Emphasis on Mass Infanticide; or, Incarnation is a Risky Business

I.
   O little town of Bethlehem,
   how still we see thee lie!
   Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
   the silent stars go by.
II.
   Silent night, holy night,
   all is calm, all is bright.
   Round yon Virgin Mother and Child,
   Holy Infant so tender and mild,
   sleep in heavenly peace.
   Sleep in heavenly peace.
