23y Don C. Settr, <Los dob, Conn. 



Let Horace sing his Latin lays 

 In praise of Tuscan wine, 



But save for me the chance to sip 

 The last grape on the vine! 



Johannisburg can keep its juice; 



Champagne its vintage fine, 

 If lips of mine can only taste 



The last grape on the vine! 



Sun and dew have served their best 



Within its ripe confine; 

 Take your Tokay, I only crave 



The last grape on the vine! 



Manna and myrrh cannot compare, 

 Nor savors sweet combine, 



To bring such bliss to earthly lips — 

 The last grape on the vine!
