    How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? When wilt thou arise out
    of thy sleep?
    Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the
    hands to sleep:
    So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth,
    and thy want as an armed man.

in the cup, when it read more

Look not upon the wine when it is read, when it giveth his colour
in the cup, when it moveth itself aright.
