Medford Historical Society Papers, Volume 14., The legend of cheese Rock. (search)
hy? the guv'nor's man in haste, And careless how they fed, His basket loaded with the cheese And quite forgot the bread. This fact so simple and so grand, To us they handed down; ‘cheese Rock’ they named that lovely hill, Those men of high renown. Some smaller men cut off the trees And then they named it ‘Bare’; And when the bushes wildly grew The spelled it ‘B-e-a-r.’ But nature still asserts her rights Against all vulgar spells, And cries aloud, “Restore the pines To these my favorite Fells. Mount Winthrop you may call this spot If you'll preserve the trees That canopied with winter's green The guv'nor's lunch of cheese!” The Society's work-papers and addresses— fifteenth year, 1910-1911.
