Quotations
Encircling in turn the best bearing trees, they drank from “clayen-cups,” and poured part of the contents on the ground under the trees. And while they wassailed the trees they sang:— “Here's to thee, old Apple tree! Whence thou mayst bud, and whence thou mayst blow, And whence thou mayst bear Apples enow! Hats full! caps full, Bushel—Bushel—sacks full, And my pockets full too.”
