Dry and ever-drinking mouth:—

Mirth doth alway feel a drowth.

Butt and barrel ceaseless flow

Fast as cans can come and go;

One with emptied measures comes

Drumming them with tuneful thumbs;

One reels field-ward, not quite sober,

With two cans of ripe October,

Some of last year's brewing, kept

Till the corn of this is reaped.
