"Along the varying road of life, In calm content, in toil or strife, In morn or at noon, by night or day, How oft doth man by care oppressed Find at an inn a place of rest!" Combe

"What do you think Here is good drink. Perhaps you may not know it; If not in haste, do stop and taste, You merry folks will show it." Molineaux, 1774
