five pound of currants
I cannot do't without counters. Let me see;
what am I to buy for our sheep-shearing feast?
Three pound of sugar,
five pound of currants, rice,--
what will this sister of mine do with rice?
But my father hath made her mistress of the feast,
and she lays it on.
She hath made me four and twenty
nose-gays for the shearers,
three-man-song-men all,
and very good ones; but they are
most of them means and bases;
but one puritan amongst them,
and he sings psalms to horn-pipes.
I must have saffron to colour the warden pies;
mace; dates? --none, that's out of my note;
nutmegs, seven; a race or two of ginger,
but that I may beg; four pound of prunes,
and as many of raisins o' the sun.
(The Winter's Tale, Act 4, Scene 3)
