adventuresofalgy:On Easter Monday - as though they were in Scotland and not on the magical Easter Island - the Easter bunny invited Algy to indulge in a wee spot of pace egging, but as they didn’t have a sloping hillside handy, they had to roll their eggs on the flat grass…When indulging in the activity of pace egging it is traditional to sing an old folk song, and indeed to beg for some money, eggs, or beer, but as neither Algy nor the Easter bunny have very good singing voices, and they don’t much care for beer, they decided to leave the singing to those better qualified…https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0dY1zbmVsCgHere’s one two three jolly lads all in one mind,We have come a pace egging and we hope you’ll prove kind;And we hope you’ll prove kind, with your eggs and strong beer,And we’ll come no more nigh you until the next year.Happy Spring and Happy Easter to you all [Note: the word pace in this context has nothing to do with speed, but is an old English version of the Latin word for Easter - Pascha ] While Algy was chatting with the little green dragon among the Easter cherry blossom, he told his odd wee friend many stories of his adventures on the mysterious Easter Island, where he had found himself this time last year, and it occurred to him that perhaps some of his new friends might like to see what he had got up to last Easter Monday in that magical faraway place. -- source link
