Hall ---------------------- Submit, Bunch of Grapes, To the strong Barley ear; The weak wine no longer The laurel shall wear. Sack, and all drinks else, Desist from the strife: Ale's the only Aqua Vitae, And liquor of life. Elizabethan song in praise of ale ---------------------------------- Feast on wine or fast on water, And your honor shall stand sure If an angel out of heaven Brings you something else to drink, Thank him for his kind attentions, Go and pour it down the sink.
