THE DRINKER'S COMMANDMENTS

Wallace Rice

These ten commandments you'll observe If drink you'd master, and not serve. I First,study where to draw the line: ' If eight will answer, why take nine? -y Of your day's being learn the state: ^ Sometimes three go as far as eight. 3 Dilute your liquor always; or Your stomach has to go to war. 4 Sit down and take your time; for know The only pleasure's drinking so. 5 Talk,jest, and laugh: in this way pass The merry fumes of many a glass. 5 Eat frequently; with spells of food Three times the drink can be withstood. mm When your head reels, then stop at once, 'Or else you'll be both sick and dunce. o Stay up till calm; you'll feel next day ® Much better than the other way. g Avoid hold-overs: there's a road ' May bring your back too heavy a load. A And,if with drinking you must brawl, ^ For love of Man,don't drink ot all!
