Chicken Salad Veronique

GRAPE, n.  

Hail noble fruit!--by Homer soung,

Anacreon and Khayyam;

Thy praise is ever on the tongue

Of better men than I am.

The lyre my hand has never swept,

The song I cannot offer:

My humbler service pray accept--

I'll help to kill the scoffer.

The water-drinkers and the cranks

Who load their skins with liquor--

I'll gladly bare their belly-tanks

And tap them with my sticker.

Fill up, fill up, for wisdom cooks

When e'er we let wth wine rest.

Here's death to Prohibition's fools,

And every kind of vine-pest!

Jamrach Holobom.
