Puzzle Description:

...The cross-eyed bear. From the 19th century hymn "Keep Thou My Way" - The actual line is "Gladly the cross I'd bear." Sorry, this one's a bit of a throw-away, but hopefully worth a chuckle...

I always thought that the bear's eyes were crossed, not that they were made of crosses!
