Had they truly discovered it

They had like me thought it unfit

To pray to water for their wit.

And had adored Sack as divine,

And made a Poet God of Wine,

And this pint-pot had been a shrine.

Sack unto them had been in stead

Of Nectar, and their heav’nly bread,

And ev’ry boy a Ganimed;

Or had they made a God of it,
