1931 Old Waldorf Bar Days by Albert Stevens Crockett
I:>(, r:Yrr e r:Yrr e PJ OF
CERTAIN GENTLEMEN OF OTHER DAYS, WHO MADE OF DRINKING
ONE OF THE PLEASURES OF LIFE–
NOT ONE OF ITS EVILS;
WHO ACHIEVED CONTENT
LONG ERE CAPACITY
WAS REACHED OR OVERTAXED;
AND
WHO, WHATEVER THEY DRANK,
PROVED ABLE TO CARRY IT,
KEEP THEIR HEADS
AND REMAIN GENTLEMEN,
EVEN IN THEIR CUPS
