Midnight

Categories: PROJECTS

245. Go out at midnight and walk around a peach-tree, repeating,--



Low for a foreigner,

Bark for a near one,

Crow for a farmer,

Screek, tree, screek, if I'm to die first.

Quaker Neck, Md.



246. Eat an apple at midnight before the glass, saying, Whoever my true

love may be, come and eat this apple with me, while holding a lamp in

the hand. Your true love will appear.

Winn, Me.



247. Set the table in silence for two at eleven o'clock P.M., with bread

and butter and silver knives and forks. Two girls sit down at twelve, and

say, Whoever my true love may be, come and eat this supper with me.

Winn, Me.
