meed

Nancy made a flat cake of white flour with a sprinkling of sugar on top, and Jenny pulled tender radishes and onions from her garden to give the taste of spring to their meed.

Their only meed--some execrating word To blight the hour when first their voice was heard.'

We make war oftentimes for a little childish anger, or for hunger of money, or for thirst of glory, or else for filthy meed.

Each float in passing received its meed of praise and applause.

Let the sick starve and the breasts of the women run dry, so long as God receives due meed of sacrifice.
