Title:     Song To Be Sung By The Lovers Of All The Noble Liquors Comprised Under The Name
Author: Samuel Taylor Coleridge [More Titles by Coleridge]

A.

Ye drinkers of Stingo and Nappy so free,
Are the Gods on Olympus so happy as we?


B.

They cannot be so happy!
For why? they drink no Nappy.


A.

But what if Nectar, in their lingo,
Is but another name for Stingo?


B.

Why, then we and the Gods are equally blest,
And Olympus an Ale-house as good as the best!
