Clarret drinker's song
An edition of Clarret drinker's song (1684)
Being a pleasant new song to the times. Written by a person of quality. Wine the most powerfull'st of all things on earth, which stifles cares and sorrows in their birth: no treason in it harbors, nor can hate creep in where it bears sway, to hurt the state: though storms grow high, so wine is to be got, we are secure, their rage we value not: the Muses cherish'd up such nectar, sing eternal joy to him that loves his King. To the tune of, Let Cœsar [sic] live long
