A

The
keeping
of
bees
was
an
object
of
much
care
in
the
economy
of
the
Anglo-Saxons.
The
great
variety
of
expressions,
taken
from
the
flavour
of
honey,
sufficiently
account
for
the
value
they
placed
upon
it.
While
the
bee-masters
[beó-ceorlas,
v.
beó-ceorl]
enjoyed
their
own
privileges,
they
had
to
pay
an
especial
tax
for
the
keeping
of
bees
