    Happy Canadian Thanksgiving!!

    Honour, riches, marriage‑blessing

    JUNO

    Honour, riches, marriage-blessing,
    Long continuance, and increasing,
    Hourly joys be still upon you!
    Juno sings her blessings upon you.

    CERES

    Earth's increase, foison plenty,
    Barns and garners never empty,
    Vines and clustering bunches growing,
    Plants with goodly burthen bowing;
    Spring come to you at the farthest
    In the very end of harvest!
    Scarcity and want shall shun you;
    Ceres' blessing so is on you.

    (song from Shakespeare’s The Tempest, sung e.g,
    by Pamela Morgan on Figgy Duff’s second album
    After the Tempest)
