| Text | The New Year's number of a children's magazine, Stu-dent & Schoolmate, featured a musical piece entitled "The Holiday Song" in 1856. The second stanza went as follows: Hark! we hear our schoolmates call, And we see the whizzing ball From the bat stick flying; Bat the ball, One and all, Great and small, Keep the ball a flying. |
