When first the Mother parted wide⠀ and welcomed in the seed⠀ Was it the bread she'd give her kin,⠀ Or ale to meet their need?⠀ The blessing of the land it was⠀ In those first early plantings⠀ The barley & the herb as one⠀ Brought forth the first ale-rantings. ⠀ ⠀

The grape gives wine, the cider flows⠀ From apple-blossomed tree⠀ All nature ripens neath the sun⠀ And sweetness makes for me⠀ The wonder of the secret change⠀ That makes the sweetness hot⠀ Is spirit in the flesh of life⠀ Makes fools as oft as not. ⠀ ⠀

So bless the drink in horn or cup⠀ As for our good we pour it⠀ A mighty draft we dare to sup⠀ And we will not ignore it ⠀ In wisdom love and strength we'll drink In care for one another We raise our spirits and our hopes⠀ And drink this drink together. - Rev. Ian Corrigan -
