INS:The Christimas story Luke 2:1-14 (ASCII graphic)

.
And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree
from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed.
. (And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was Governor of
Syria.)
And all went to be taxed, even unto his own city.
.
And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of
. Nazareth, unto Judea, unto the city of David, which is called
Bethlehem (because he was of the House and Lineage of David.) To
be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.
And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were
* accomplished that she should be delivered.
.
And she brought forth her first born son, and wrapped him in
swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger, because there was
+ no room for them in the inn.
And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the
field, keeping watch over their flock by night.
.
. And lo, the Angel of the Lord came upon them, and the Glory of
the Lord shone about them: and they were sore afraid.
+
And the Angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you
. good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
.
For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour,
. which is Christ the Lord.
And this shall be a sign unto you; ye shall find the babe
wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
.
* And suddenly there was with the Angel a multitude of the
heavenly Host praising God, and saying,
.
Glory to God in the highest, and on Earth peace, good will
. towards men.
