A friendly traditional country pub. Have a pint of 9 Ladies & check out the village well in the tap room floor. "Dear mother, dear mother, the Church is cold, But the ale-house is healthy and pleasant and warm; Besides I can tell where I am well used, Such usage in Heaven will never do well. But if at the church they would give us some ale, And a pleasant fire our souls to regale, We'd sing and we'd pray the livelong day, Nor ever once wish from church to stray. Then the parson might preach, and drink and sing, And we'd be as happy as birds in spring; And modest Dame Lurch, who is always at church, Would not have bandy children, nor fasting, nor birch. And God, like father, rejoicing to see His children as pleasant and happy as he, Would have no more quarrel with the devil or the barrel, But kiss him, and give him both drink and apparel." The Little Vagabond William Blake |
