[“Let us drink and be merry]
“Let us drink and be merry,
Dance, laugh, and rejoice,
With claret and sherry,
Theorbo and sherry.
Dance, laugh, and rejoice,
With claret and sherry,
Theorbo and sherry.
“This changeable world
To our joys is unjust;
All pleasure's uncertain,
So down with your dust.
To our joys is unjust;
All pleasure's uncertain,
So down with your dust.
“In pleasure dispose
Your pounds, shillings, and pence,
For we all shall be nothing
A hundred years hence.”
Your pounds, shillings, and pence,
For we all shall be nothing
A hundred years hence.”
