the_o delight_n of_o the_o bottle_n or_o the_o town-galants_a declaration_n for_o woman_n and_o wine_n be_v a_o description_n of_o a_o town-bred-gentleman_n with_o all_o his_o intrigue_n pleasure_n company_n humour_n and_o conversation_n gallant_n from_o fault_n he_o can_v not_o be_v exempt_a who_o do_v a_o task_n so_o difficult_a attempt_n i_o know_v i_o shall_v not_o hit_v your_o feature_n right_a it_o be_v hard_a to_o imitate_v in_o black_a and_o white_a some_o line_n be_v draw_v by_o a_o more_o skilful_a hand_n and_o which_o they_o be_v you_o will_v quick_o understand_v excuse_v i_o therefore_o if_o i_o do_v you_o wrong_v i_o do_v but_o make_v a_o ballad_n of_o a_o song_n to_o a_o most_o admirable_a new_a tune_n every_o where_o much_o in_o request_n the_o delight_n of_o the_o bottle_n &_o charm_n of_o good_a wine_n to_o the_o power_n &_o the_o pleasure_n of_o love_n must_v resign_v though_o the_o night_n in_o the_o joy_n of_o good_a drink_n be_v past_a the_o debauch_n but_o still_o the_o next_o morning_n do_v last_o but_o love_v great_a debauch_n be_v more_o last_a and_o strong_a for_o that_o often_o last_v a_o man_n all_o his_o life_n long_o love_n and_o wine_n be_v the_o bond_n that_o fasten_v we_o all_o the_o world_n but_o for_o this_o to_o confusion_n will_v fall_v be_v it_o not_o for_o the_o pleasure_n of_o love_n and_o good_a wine_n mankind_n for_o each_o trifle_n their_o life_n will_v resign_v they_o will_v not_o value_v dull_a life_n or_o will_v live_v without_o think_v nor_o king_n rule_v the_o world_n but_o for_o love_n &_o good_a drink_n for_o the_o drive_v and_o the_o dull_a by_o sobriety_n curse_v that_o will_v never_o take_v a_o glass_n but_o for_o quench_v his_o thirst_n he_o that_o once_o in_o a_o month_n take_v a_o touch_n of_o the_o smock_n and_o poor_a nature_n up-holds_a with_o a_o bit_n and_o a_o knock_v whatever_o the_o ignorant_a rabble_n may_v say_v though_o he_o breathe_v till_o a_o hundred_o he_o live_v but_o a_o day_n let_v the_o puritan_n preach_v against_o wench_n and_o drink_v he_o may_v prate_v out_o his_o lung_n but_o i_o know_v what_o i_o think_v when_o the_o lecture_n be_v do_v he_o will_v a_o sister_n entice_v not_o a_o lecher_n in_o town_n can_v outdo_a he_o at_o vice_n though_o beneath_o his_o religion_n he_o stifle_v his_o joy_n and_o become_v a_o debauch_n without_o clamour_n or_o noise_n betwixt_o the_o uice_n of_o both_o little_a difference_n lie_v but_o that_o one_o be_v more_o open_a the_o other_o precise_a though_o he_o drink_v like_o a_o chick_n with_o his_o eyeball_n lift_v up_o yet_o i_o will_v warrant_v thou_o boy_n he_o shall_v take_v off_o his_o cup_n his_o religious_a debauch_n do_v the_o gallant_n outmatch_n for_o a_o saint_n be_v his_o wench_n and_o a_o psalm_n be_v his_o catch_n the_o second_o part_n to_o the_o same_o tune_n for_o the_o lady_n of_o virtue_n &_o honour_n so_o strict_a that_o who_o offer_v her_o guinney_n deserve_v to_o be_v kick_v who_o with_o sport_n by_o herself_o do_v her_o fancy_n beguile_v that_o be_v ashamed_a of_o a_o jest_n and_o afraid_a of_o a_o smile_n may_v she_o lie_v by_o herself_o till_o she_o wear_v out_o the_o stair_n go_v down_o to_o her_o dinner_n and_o up_o to_o her_o prayer_n but_o let_v we_o that_o have_v noble_a and_o generous_a soul_n no_o method_n observe_v but_o in_o fill_v our_o bowl_n let_v we_o frolic_v it_o round_o to_o replenish_v our_o vein_n and_o with_o notion_n divine_a to_o inspire_v our_o brain_n it_o be_v a_o way_n that_o be_v gentile_a and_o be_v find_v to_o be_v good_a both_o to_o quicken_v the_o wit_n and_o enliven_v the_o blood_n what_o a_o pleasure_n it_o be_v to_o see_v bottle_n before_o we_o with_o the_o woman_n among_o we_o to_o make_v up_o the_o chorus_n now_o a_o jest_n now_o a_o catch_n now_o a_o buss_n now_o a_o health_n till_o our_o pleasure_n come_v on_o by_o insensible_a stealth_n and_o when_o grow_v to_o a_o height_n with_o our_o girl_n we_o retire_v by_o a_o brisk_a enjoyment_n to_o slacken_v the_o fire_n and_o this_o be_v the_o way_n that_o the_o wise_a do_v take_v a_o perpetual_a motion_n in_o pleasure_n to_o make_v with_o a_o flood_n of_o obrian_n we_o fill_v
