Eat at pleasure, drink by measure.
Pain tant qu’il dure, vin à mésure.
Cheese is a peevish elf,
It digests all but itself.
Caseus est nequam,
Quia digerit omnia se quàm.
The best physicians are Dr. Diet, Dr. Quiet, and Dr. Merryman.
Si tibi deficiant medici, medici tibi fiant
Hæc tria; mens læta, requies, moderata diæta.
Drink in the morning staring,
Then all the day be sparing.
Eat a bit before you drink.
Feed sparingly and dupe the physician.
Better be meals many than one too many.
