Strana 191 - Tis physic, clothing, music, meat, and drink. Gods would have revell'd at their feats of Mirth With this pure distillation of the Earth ; The Marrow of the World, Star of the West, The Pearl whereby this lower Orb is blest ; The Joy of Mortals, Umpire of all Strife, Delight of Nature, Mithridate of Life ; The daintiest dish of a delicious feast, By taking which Man differs from a beast.
