Mystic mistletoe flaunted,
Such as the Druids cut down with golden hatchets at Yuletide.
Longfellow.
William Stukeley, Arch Druid (1687-1765), says: "The Druids cut mistletoe off the trees with their upright hatchets of brass, called Celts, put upon the ends of their staffs, which they carried in their hands."
Mistletoe is said to be the forbidden tree in the middle of the trees of Eden.
