These four, one spoonful each, combine: Juice of apples freshly pressed, Cider aged past seven days, Apple-vinegar, tart and brown, Apple-brandy, clear and strong; Add to these an ounce of honey, One scant drop of wintergreen; Stir them, warm them, mix them well, And take the tonic every dawn, Saying this to work the spell: |

If I must pay The apples price, I shall be young As well as wise, Filling my cup With honeyed days And hours as green As Eden's grass. |
