Another reason to make Dec 25 jolly

In her article The Ten Days of Newton, Olivia Judson proposes the following song, to be sung to the tune of “The Twelve Days of Christmas.”

the final verse goes like this:

On the tenth day of Newton,
My true love gave to me,
Ten drops of genius,
Nine silver co-oins,
Eight circling planets,
Seven shades of li-ight,
Six counterfeiters,
Cal-Cu-Lus!
Four telescopes,
Three Laws of Motion,
Two awful feuds,
And the discovery of gravity!

All together now! =)
