- I taste a liquor never brewed,
- From tankards scooped in pearl;
- Not all the vats upon the Rhine
- Yield such an alcohol!
- Inebriate of air am I,
- And debauchee of dew,
- Reeling, through endless summer days,
- From inns of molten blue.
- When landlords turn the drunken bee
- Out of the foxglove's door,
- When butterflies renounce their drams,
- I shall but drink the more!
- Till seraphs swing their snowy hats,
- And saints to windows run,
- To see the little tippler
- Leaning against the sun!
