The peace, joy, and brightness of our Lord' nativity be with you, and His star rising in the East illuminate your lives until you meet Him wrapped in glory standing upon the clouds at the right hand of the Father.

This night is the eve of the great Nativity,
Born is the Son of Mary the Virgin,
The soles of His feet have reached the earth,
The Son of glory down from on high,
Heaven and earth glowed to Him,
All hail! let there be joy!
'Tis frenzy blind,
'Tis witlessness, 'tis madness wild
- Since still to deathward all life tends -
To be unfriends with Mary's child.
Mór báis mor baile
mór coll ceille mor mire
olais airchenn teicht do écaib
beith fo étoil maíc maire.

Excellence of character, then, is a state concerned with choice, lying in a mean relative to us, this being determined by reason and in the way in which the man of practical wisdom would determine it. Now it is a mean between two vices, that which depends on excess and that which depends on defect.
