A Three-Part CATCH.
'Tis in view—(the rich blessing kind nature bestow'd,To conquer our sorrows, or lighten the load)
A full Flask!—the rich nectar this bottle contains
In a flood of fresh rapture shall roll through our veins.
Let it bleed—and carousing this liquor divine,
Sing an hymn to the God that first cultur'd the vine.
