Songs Set To Music: 10. Set By Mr. Smith Poem by Matthew Prior
Songs Set To Music: 10. Set By Mr. Smith
Rating: ★2.7
Why, Harry, what ails you? why look you so sad?
To think and ne'er drink will make you stark mad.
'Tis the mistress, the friend, and the bottle, old boy,
Which create all the pleasure poor mortals enjoy;
But wine of the three's the most cordial brother,
For one it relieves, and it strengthens the other.
