Each chapter was headed by a quotation and in one case it read something like:
        "The hive contained one obstinate bee,
         His name was Peter and thus spake he,
         Why should a hive swarm altogether'
         Why should a bee not swarm alone?"

How well does my memory serve me please?   Also what was the source of the
quotation and who was its author?

This may not be of general interest so if you would rather not use group space
e-mail me please.
                                                                Regards Alex.

    Don't have that book in my collection, but would like to
hear more. A little culture won't hurt any of us old beekeepers.
