We all admiring the finicalness of the entertainment, "Mars," said he, "is a lover of justice, and therefore let every one have a table to himself, for having more elbow-room, these nasty stinking boys will be less troublesome to us"; and thereupon large double-eared vessels of glass close plaistered over, were brought up with labels about their necks, upon which was this inscription: OPIMIAN MUSCADINE OF AN HUNDRED YEARS OLD.
If you will, you may put in a spoonful of Sack or Muscadine, and Ambared Sugar, working all well together; as also, some lumps of Marrow or Suet shred very small: but it will be very good without either of these.
Behold the tall maples turned red in their hue, And the muscadine vine, with its clusters of blue; And the lotus, whose leaves have scarce time to unfold, Ere they drop, to discover its berries of gold; And the bay-tree, perfumed, never changing its sheen, And for ever enrobed in its mantle of green! And list to the music borne over the trees!
The bottoms near are overspread with a dense growth of trees and vines, among which latter I noticed the Muscadine grape.

Worked with Simon building frames for the grape vines in the peach orchards.... Set out eighteen English black currants, twenty-two English gooseberries and Muscadine grape vines, also Lawton blackberries.... Worked in the garden all day, then went to the city to hear Dr.

What was our surprise on tasting the beverage to find that it was wine wine in the middle of the desert! But it was so excellent wine homemade, as our host informed us pressed from the wild muscadine grapes that grew plentifully in his valley.
Going to my Lord's I met with Mr. Shepley, and so he and I to the Sun, and I did give him a morning draft of Muscadine. 'Vinum muscatum quod moschi odorem referat. "Quaffed off the muscadel, and threw the sops All in the sexton's face." Shakespeare, Taming of the Shrew, act iii.
