Tapster, fille another ale

by Anonymous (Middle English) c. 13th–16th century

From Early English Lyrics (1907)

Living

Tapster, fille another ale.
Anonne have I do.
God sende us good sale.
Avale the stake, avale.
Here is good ale ifounde.
Drinke to me,
And I to thee,
And lette the cuppe go rounde.
