Yes...

Yes...
AND, --- while you are being MAGICAL >>> This is what you should do: love the earth and sun and the animals, despise riches, give alms to everyone that asks, stand up for the stupid and crazy, devote your income and labor to others, hate tyrants, argue not concerning God, have patience and indulgence toward the people, take off your hat to nothing known or unknown or to any man or number of men ... re-examine all you have been told at school or church or in any book, dismiss what insults your own soul, and your very flesh shall be a great poem. --- Walt Whitman

Souling, ~ The Origins Of Trick Or Treat...

"A soul, a soul, a soul cake... Please, good missus, a soul cake!... An apple, a pear, a plum, a cherry, any good thing to make us all merry!... Bless this house and master, and the mistress also, and all the little children who 'round your table grow, the horses in your stable, the dog at your front door... Happy tidings and good wishes, I wish you ten times more!... Go into your cellar and see what you can find... If your cellar is not empty, I hope you will be kind... I hope you will be kind, good missus, I hope You will be kind!... If your cellar is not empty, I hope you will be kind... My shoes are very dirty... My cloak is very thin... I have a lttle pocket to put a penny in... If you haven't got a penny, a ha' penny will do... If you haven't got a ha' penny, then god bless you!... Then, god bless you, good missus, then, god bless you!"
