Drunkenness |
Hufty tufty the cap gun shouts |
Your whole life is inside out |
A cast of martinets, a whiff of Monsieur Mingo |
Horse outside, going down to Sligo |
So slaver and drivel like a child at mouth |
No more of this drunkenness |
In slavish Bacchus-born, I hate it to death |
Drunkenness |
Thy scurvy lungs with surfeiting be putrified |
Thy wrath be fatal to thy dearest friends |
A toucher, a toucher, for quaffing toy doth pass |
In cup, in can, in glass, drunkenness |
God Bacchus do him right and dub him knight |
Rise up Sir Robert Tosspot, Sir Robert Tosspot |
No more of this, I hate it to the death |
Drunkenness |
Deformer of the soul, abusing all the earth’s fine fruits |
In cellars and in vaults |
Let none commit their counsels unto thee |
Thy wrath be fatal to them, drunkenness |
Dropsies and watery tympanies haunt thee |
Thy lungs with surfeiting be putrified |
Odious stinking breath |
Slaver and drivel like a child at mouth |
Drunkenness |
Be poor and beggardly in thy old age |
Let thy own kinsmen laugh when thou complainest |
And many tears gain nothing but blind scoffs |
Drunkenness |
Hufty tufty the cap gun shouts |
Your whole life is inside out |
Drunkenness |
