Go back, he said, ye drunken lown,

You’re none of the celestial flock.

Noah, she said, hold thou thy piece,

Where I drank ale, thou didst drink wine,

Discovered was to thy disgrace,

When thou wast full like to a swine:

If I was drunk I learned at thee,

For thou’rt the father and the first,

That others taught, and likewise me,

To drink when we as had no thirst.
