WOMEN and WINE:
AN EPIGRAM.
'Twas a Doubt in Debate among Sages of yore,Whether Women, or Wine, had more absolute Power;
Now had I been the Judge, when the Matter was done,
Not one had been wiser, than when it begun:
For how can Man tell, which the strongest to call,
When with the same Ease, both can give him a Fall?
