And yet his shrewd common sense cannot but see the injustice and cruelty of those aggressive...

The kindly services rendered to the lord in seed-time and harvest were otherwise called precations, gifel-works, and love-boons. The days on which they were rendered used to be called boon-days, and occasionally love-days : a love-day more commonly meant a law-day, a day set apart for a leet or manorial court, a day of final concord and reconciliation : as we read in the Coventry Mysteries : " Now is the love-day mad of us foure...
