What to Drink?
Feast on wine or fast on waterAnd your honour shall stand sure,
God Almighty's son and daughter
He the valiant, she the pure;
If an angel out of heaven
Brings you other things to drink,
Thank him for his kind attentions,
Go and pour them down the sink.
From G.K. Chesterton's "The Song of Right and Wrong."
