Fill all the glasses there, for why

Should every creature drink but I?

Why, man of morals, tell me why?

From Anacreon, ii. Drinking.

[[261]]

A mighty pain to love it is,

And 't is a pain that pain to miss;

But of all pains, the greatest pain

It is to love, but love in vain.

From Anacreon, vii. Gold.
