    Doth ask a drink divine;
    But might I of Jove's nectar sup,
    I would not change for thine.

L'Abbe de Ville proposed a toast,
His master, as the rising Sun:
Reisbach then gave the Empress Queen,
As the bright moon and much praise won.

Gave for his toast his own King Will,
As Joshua the sun of Nun,
Who made both Sun and Moon stand still.

Here's to the red of it,
There's not a thread of it,

Faced steel and lead for it,
Precious blood shed for it,
Bathing in red.
