Parnassi Puerperium | ||
80. Upon a certain Versifier.
You drink, as if, none could a Poet be;Without from Ale, they learn the Mysterie.
You swill, as if, the Muses lend an Hand
To none; but those, whom Beer forbids, to stand.
When drunk, you Rhythm, without all wit, or Fear:
You may love drink; your self, an Hogs-head are.
