"Prince Ragnal, and other holiday verses" by Eleanor C. Donnelly is a collection of poetry written during the late 19th century.

The poems reflect themes of love, redemption, and the spiritual significance of the Christmas season, interwoven with mythic and historical elements that showcase both personal and communal aspects of faith. The titular poem, "Prince Ragnal,"
