On the 8th Day of CHRISTmas my true love gave to me, EIGHT Maids A-Milking ~ The Beatitudes {Matthew 5:3-10}.

1. Blessed are the poor in spirit.

2. Blessed are those who mourn.

3. Blessed are the meek.

4. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness.

5. Blessed are the merciful.

6. Blessed are the pure in heart.

7. Blessed are the peacemakers.

8. Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake.

"The maid has the Maltese cross on her apron which stands for the 8 Beatitudes".
