Seite 120 - twas a pleasant thought to bring its symbol here ; 'Tis but the fool that loves excess — hast thou a drunken soul, Thy bane is in thy shallow skull, not in my silver bowl! I love the memory of the past — its pressed yet fragrant flowers — The moss that clothes its broken walls — the ivy...
Seite 117 - Next crowne the bowle full With gentle lamb's- wooll ; Adde sugar, nutmeg, and ginger, With store of ale too ; And thus ye must doe To make the wassaile a swinger.
