Feast

I drank at every vine.      The last was like the first.    I came upon no wine      So wonderful as thirst.     I gnawed at every root.      I ate of every plant.    I came upon no fruit      So wonderful as want.     Feed the grape and bean     To the vintner and monger;   I will lie down lean     With my thirst and my hunger.
