SONG.
[Why should Christians be restrain'd]
Why
should Christians be restrain'd
From the brisk enliv'ning Juice,
Heaven only has ordain'd
(Thro' Love to Man) for humane use?
Should not Claret be deny'd
To the Turks, they'd Wiser grow;
Lay their Alchoran aside,
And soon believe as Christians do.
CHORUS.
For Wine and Religion, like Musick and Wine,
As they are Good in themselves, do to Goodness incline;
And make both the Spirit and Flesh so divine,
That our Faces and Graces both equally shine:
Then still let the Bumper round Christendom pass,
For Paradice lost may be found in a Glass.
