Synopsis
Excerpt from Shakespeare''s Crab Tree: With Its Legend, and a Descriptive Account, Showing Its Relation to the Poet''s Traditional History
There was another notable body designated Ale tasters and Bread weighers at stratford-on-avon, appointed by the bailiffs and subse quently by the mayors, whose bibulous capabilities the Bidfordians might be desirous of ascertaining. Such a challenge resembles those in use even to this day between the Ringers and Psalm-singers, who enjoy nothing so much as to give each other a touch of their quality, and it is more than probable that was the case in the acceptance of this cartel.
