EMBLEME XXXIIII.
Le vin est l’entretien de l’esprit.
Muetz Amycliens.[1] pourquoy avez vous mis
Les aesles sur le doz de Bacchus porte-grappe?
Il met la plume au flancz de l’esprit trop remis,
Et faict que bravement hors de terre il eschappe.
Notes:
1. Amyclae was a lovely spot in the Peloponnese, the birthplace of Castor and Pollux.
