New Year's Day is every man's birthday.

New Year's Day is every man's birthday.

And, everyday is someone's birthday,

No one ever regarded the First of January with indifference. It is that from which all date their time, and count upon what is left. It is the nativity of our common Adam.

Every birthday is a gift. Every day is a gift.

Of all sound of all bells... most solemn and touching is the peal which rings out the Old Year.
