Text:
“Massliebchen heisst dies’ Blümchen hier,
drum lieb mit Mass und trink dein Bier.”
(This flower is called measure lover,
therefore love with measure and drink your beer.)
For purposes of understanding the intent of the verse, Massliebchen has been translated literally as “measure lover”. However, the pictured flowers are actually called “ox-eye daisies” in English. The word Mass can also be used to describe the amount (measure) of beer in a standard one-liter beer stein, or the stein itself as a shortened form of Masskrug (measure stein).
Price Range $50-$70
