A happy New Year! Grant that I,
may bring no tear to any eye.
When this New Year in time shall end
let it be said I've played the friend,
have lived and loved and labored here,
and made of it a happy year.~ Edgar Guest
Be always at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbors, and let each new year find you a better man. ~ Benjamin Franklinmay bring no tear to any eye.
When this New Year in time shall end

and made of it a happy year.~ Edgar Guest
Ring out the old, ring in the new, Ring, happy bells, across the snow: The year is going, let him go; Ring out the false, ring in the true. ~ Alfred, Lord Tennyson
