ABSTRACT
If one drinks obsessively, is it not craziness? If one drinks wildly, is it not madness? If one drinks continually, is it not trouble? If one rejects it altogether, is it not wisdom? If one drinks within reason, is it not pleasure? If one drinks till one falls over, is it not stupidity? May all those assembled enjoy themselves Having flocked together like swans and geese. Do not pay attention to the words of deceitful men and get drunk. Do not abandon your bodies to harmful foes. Flocking together like swans and geese May you enjoy yourselves with the men of wisdom. Do not pay attention to glib men and get drunk. Do not give up your lives to sword-swinging foes. Coming together like mandarin ducks May you rejoice together with your beloved comrades. Do not pay attention to the words of frivolous men and get drunk. Enjoy yourselves, fulfilling your desires. Do not abandon each other to the murderous foe. Do not get taken like lapwings in a snare. Rejoice with young and old. Do not pay attention to the words of wicked men and get drunk. Go unflinchingly against the vicious foe.
