Clement Moore's classic poem 'Twas the Night before Christmas – A Visit From Saint Nicholas' endures as one of the quintessential pieces of American holiday literature. Comprising a vivid and charming account of St. Nicholas's nocturnal visit, the poem has played an instrumental role in shaping the modern iconography and mythology of Santa Claus.
