■' Qjio" regio in terris nostri non plena vaporis?" 



Gods would have reveWd at their feasts of MirtJi 

 With this pure distillation of the Earth — 

 The Marrow of the World, Starre of the West, 

 The Pearle whereby this lozuer Or be 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."
