Rush Bearing is a book written by Alfred Burton in 1891 that provides an account of the old custom of strewing rushes, carrying rushes to the church, the rush cart, garlands in churches, Morris dancers, the wake, and the rush. The book explores the history and traditions of this custom, which was once prevalent in England and other parts of Europe. The author describes the various rituals and ceremonies associated with the rush bearing, including the procession of people carrying the rushes to the church, the decoration of the church with garlands made of flowers and rushes, and the performance of Morris dancers. The book also delves into the social and cultural significance of the rush bearing, highlighting the role it played in bringing communities together and reinforcing their shared values and beliefs. Overall, Rush Bearing is a fascinating exploration of an ancient custom that provides a unique window into the history and culture of England and Europe.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
