Hats-full, caps-full!
Bushel-bushel-sacks-full!
And my pockets full too! Huzza!"
Old Custom of blessing Apple Trees on Twelfth Day.
Apple-tree, apple-tree,
Bear apples for me:
Hats full, laps full,
Sacks full, caps full:
Apple-tree, apple-tree,
Bear apples for me.
"Twelfth-Day—came in a tiffany suit, white and gold, like a queen on a frost-cake, all royal, glittering, and Epiphanous."
Elia.
January the fourteenth will be either the coldest or wettest day of the year.
