With Roses Interwoven, Poplar Wreaths

Their Temples bind, dress of Sylvestrian Gods:

Choicest Nectarian Juice Crown’d largest Bowls,

And over look’d the lid, alluring sight,

Of fragrant Scent, attractive, tast Divine!

Whether from Formain Grape depress’d, Falern

Or Setin, Massic, Gauran, or Sabine,

Lesbian or Cæcuban the chearing Bowl

Mov’d briskly round, and spur’d their heightened wit

To sing Mecœna praise their Patron kind.
