Quote context

[...]

- 'That's a noise', grinned the Grinch, 'that I simply must hear'.

- He paused. And the Grinch put a hand to his ear. And he did hear a sound rising over the snow. It started in low, then it started to grow.

- Fah who for-aze, dah who dor-aze, welcome Christmas, come this way. (2)

- Fah who for-aze, dah who dor-aze, welcome Christmas, Christmas Day. Welcome, welcome, fah who rah-moose. Welcome, welcome, dah who dah-moose.

- Christmas day is in our grasp...

- But this... this sound wasn't sad. Why, this sound sounded glad.

- Every Who down in Who-ville, the tall and the small was singing without any presents at all.

- He hadn't stopped Christmas from coming, it came. Somehow or other, it came just the same.

- And the Grinch, with his Grinch feet ice-cold in the snow stood puzzling and puzzling.

- How could it be so? It came without ribbons. It came without tags. It came without packages, boxes or bags.

- He puzzled and puzzed till his puzzler was sore. Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before.
