They say that the congregation of ascetics
In everything which they command, in that they rise
We with wine & sweethearts, are constance to these
May it be that such may arise from my earth.
Payne 1898 - 310
Quoth all who live godly that, as a man dies,
On like fashion again from the tomb he shall rise;
For which reason to wanton and wine we apply,
So mayhap THEY shall raise us again on like wise.
Thompson 1906 - 747
Those who lead lives of abstinence, all say
That just as men die even so rise they,
For this we persevere with love and wine,
That They may raise us up in the same way.
