Carey, “A Drinking Song” read by Joseph Barrett
Source:UMW Download Title
Bacchus must now his power resign–
I am the only God of Wine!
It is not fit the wretch should be
In competition set with me,
Who can drink ten times more than he.
Make a new world, ye powers divine!
Stock’d with nothing else but Wine:
Let Wine its only product be,
Let Wine be earth, and air, and sea–
And let that Wine be all for me!

Love the allusions to classical mythology! Seems a bit arrogant for the author to claim to be the new god of wine. This author perhaps should attend a few AA meetings…
