Sweet of taste and fine of body,
Through thine aid we soon shall study
How to make us glorious!
“Oh! thy color erubescent!
Oh! thy fragrance evanescent!
Oh! within the mouth how pleasant!
Thou the tongue’s prætorius!
“Blest the stomach where thou wendest!
Blest the throat which thou distendest!
Blest the mouth which thou befriendest,
