Wineglass
Not on view
The heavy foot on this glass indicates that it was of the type used as a "firing glass," to be pounded on the table after a toast. The engraved inscription is an English version of the inscription (from an old song "The Freemasons' Health," 1740): "Then join hand in hand / T'each other firm stand / Let's be merry and put a bright face on. / What mortal can boast / So noble a toast / As a Free or an accepted Mason?"
