to fnake Rol^ or Vinegar, prefs all the Grapes in their 
Vineyardsj put it up in great Jars, under Ground, and 
keep it long, fo that it proves excellent Wine. When 
four or five merry Companions, with every one his 
Miftrefs, appoint to be merry, they go ouc to their 
Vineyard or Garden, have Mufick, and all or moft of
