Don't even think about
asking where the arak
came from. You know
I'm a trader, always
looking out for a bargain;
& if someone believes
my body still has
value, then who am I
to question the exchange?
So drink up. There are
another four flasks
left in the cupboard.
attributed to Menon; 4th century B.C.
