A97251	The odious, despicable, and dreadfull condition of a drunkard, drawn to the life to deterre others, and cause them to decline the wayes of death, or, A hopefull way to cure drunkennesse (the root of all evill, and rot of all good) in such as are not (by long custome) past cure : composed, and published for their good, who (not for want of ignorance) prinde themselves in drunken good-fellowship : which probably may open their eies, as the tasting of honey did Jonathan, and cause them to say as the governour to the bridegroome, John 2.10, The good wine was kept back untill now / by Junius Florilegus.

a_o multitude_n of_o word_n ecclesiaste_v 10.14_o and_o babble_a drunkard_n can_v better_o afford_v you_o a_o sea_n of_o word_n than_o a_o drop_n of_o wit_n as_o mark_v whether_o their_o discourse_n
