LIX.

The Grape that can with Logic absolute The Two-and-Seventy jarring Sects confute; The sovereign Alchemist that in a trice Life's leaden metal into Gold transmute;

This quatrain is translated from O. 77.

Drink wine, that will banish thine abundant woes. And will banish thought of the Seventy-two Sects; Avoid not the Alchemist,[70] from whom Thou takest one draught, and he banishes a thousand calamities.
