The Origin of Beer.

In Jolly field of barley good King Gambr-
nus slept.
And dreaming Of his thirsty realm the merry
I'm ali my land Of Netherland there grows no
And water / could never coax adown this
throat OF mine.
"Now list to me, ye heather gods, and eke, yc
Both zernebook and Jupiter, and Mary, clad
IN blue;
And mighty Thor the Thunderer and any
The one who aids me in my need his servant [
will be-"
And as the sinful hcathen all in the barley
lay,
There came in dreams an angel bright, who
soft these words did say
"Arise, thou poor Gnmbrnus, for even all
In the barley whcro thou slcopest nectar
may be found.
I'm the barley where thou sleepest there
hides a nectar clear
Which men shall know in later times as por'
ter, ale or beer
Then in terms the most explicit he put the
the monarch through
And gave him ere the dream was ont the
recipes TO brew.
prose King Gambrlnus aud shook him in
the sun;
Away. ye wretched heather gods, with you
I'm quit and done
Yo've left me with my subjects in error aud
In thirst;
TIL in our dreadful dryness we scarce know
which is worst.
II was the good Gambrnus unto his palace
went,
And messengers through all the land unto his
lords were sent
Leave Odin, under pain OF dcath'' Ills
orders We're severe
Yet touched with mildnoss for he sent the
recipe for beer.
