SONG OF THE GOBLET . — By Bro . G . -Douglas Thompson { This Song is Copyright . ] ' Fill me high ! Fill me high ! When stern winter is nigh , With ale that ' s well spiced and old ;
Send me round , send me round , Where good fellows * abound , And guests sit secure from the cold ; For filled with old ale , I give zest to the tale ,
When right healthy mirth doth abound , And all sweet and strong , Make the voice for a song , Clear as echo that mimics the sound .
Fill again ! Fill again ! When stern winter ' s dark reign Is o ' er , and sweet summer is near , But the juice of the vine Then within me should shine ,
Clear and cool when the summer is here ; Then with wine brimming o ' er , Let wit bring her store , As we bask ' neath the shade of the vine ; For the song and the tale , Fill me up with old ale ; For wit , you must fill me with wine .
