Original text and translations
English text
Let crystal White Wine cheer the drowsy mind;
‘Tis Claret only leaves a stain behind;
In the use of which we do Bacchus disgrace;
We make the god mortal by painting his face;
He’s not like a god, whose image is red;
O’er night his cheeks blush, in the morning they’re dead.
