TURN 1T DOWN.

TURN 1T DOWN
1.-The cup that cheers :" and exc 'inebriates, -
That is not the cup for man when he potates,
For it surely o'ermasters him and never safes.
All spirits addle pateS
And open wide the gates
To Satan, who awaits
With crafty bats
Drinks adept
swept,
Whose brains
He chains.
Quick pass
The glass:
But StingS
1t brings,
Its Joys
Are clogs.
And steal
Your veal.
Turn it down
Ere it drown
With sudden flood
Your very life'S blood.
Beware the SerpentS tooth,
1t knows not any let nor ruth;
Ct bites. and to assuage the pain
1 quick invites to try the bite again.
on fatal bite! it's poison dulls the brain
And sapS the juices that its thoughts sustain.
A spirit, it brOods DER its nestlings of woe;
A spirit that takes you afar from the ways
That lead up to honor and merited praise:
A spirit that reddenS your eyes, cheeks and nose;
spirit that paints all things "cOuleur de rOSe:''
A spirit whose wileS wife and children decry;
A spirit that quenches all hopes good and high.
AS with voice and gesture you turn the cup down.
Down! Turn it down. The nOU is your own,
Down, firmly down, and earn victory's crown.

his former declaration of innocence and
