Water is a wonderful drink; it does not disturb the clarity of thoughts, but drinking a cup of wine clouds the mind (2). Wine by its nature is unfamiliar with chastity, and therefore it produces pleasure because it irritates (2). Wine is the ignition of a cooled passion, and any substance added to the fire intensifies the flame (2). Wine is the gall for virgins, it brings them a lot of disgrace, and anger leads them to frenzy, yet it is the path to death (2). You might be interested in:
