FLORAL EMBLEMS. 
DRUNKENNESS. 
Vine.— Vitus. 
“ Great father, Bacchus, to my song repair ; 
For clust’ring grapes are thy peculiar care : 
Come strip with me, my god; come drench all o’er. 
Thy limbs in musk of wine, and drink at ev’ry pore.” 
This emblem requires no explanation, and 
our only remark on a drunkard will be the 
words of Shakspeare. 
(< 
O monstrous beast! how like a swine he lies.”
