[VVhen my sense in Wine I steep]
VVhen my sense in Wine I steep,All my cares are lull'd asleep:
Rich in thought, I then despise
Cræsus, and his royalties:
Whilst with Ivy twines I wreath me,
And sing all the World beneath me;
16
I to Bacchus's delights;
Fill the cup then Boy, for I
Drunk then dead had rather ly.
| Anacreon | |
