Nay, believe me,--'t was not Brandy Wrought the roses that you see; One may get a finer crimson From a purer eau-de-vie. No, indeed,--it was not Claret (That were something over-weak); There's a vastly better vintage For the painting of a cheek. Not Angelica--the honey By Loyola's children pressed From the Andalusian clusters Ripened in the Golden West; Not Madeira, Hock, nor Sherry; No, indeed, 't is none of these Makes me giddy in the forehead, Makes me tremble in the knees.

This it is that I've been drinking To intoxication's edge; Till I marvel that the tipple Is n't mentioned in the pledge! For the taste is so enchanting T is impossible to see, Should it grow into a habit, What the consequence may be. Well--I 'll heed the sage's lesson, (Pleasant--though it prove in vain,) And by drinking very largely Try to sober me again! EGO ET ECHO. A FANTASY. I.
