On Drink

        
         
         
   Where there is drink there is danger. 
   
   
   
   Many a child is hungry because the brewer is rich. 
   
   
   
   Be not drunk with wine. 

                            Eph. 5:18                               
   
   
   
   
   Who hath woe?  Who hath sorrow?  Who hath contentions?  Who 
   hath wounds without a cause?  Who hath redness of the eyes?  
   They that tarry long at the wine;  They that go to seek mixed 
   wine. 
                                                  Prov. 23:29-30
                                                          
   
   
   
   
   Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging;  and whosoever is 
   deceived thereby is not wise. 
                                                    Prov. 20:1
                                                          
   
   
   
   
   Look not thou upon the wine when it is red;  when it giveth his 
   color in the cup;  when it moveth itself aright.  At the last 
   it biteth like a serpent and stingeth like an adder. 

                                                  Prov. 23:31-32        
   
   
   
   
   Whisky drinking is risky drinking. 
   
   
   
   
   Whisky is very harmless --- if you don't drink it. 
   
   
   
   
   Drink first dims, then darkens, then deadens, then damns. 
   
   
   
   
   Drink injures a man externally, internally and eternally. 
   
   
   
   
   Don't let the public-house live on your private house. 
                                                      
   
   
   
   Stout makes many lean. 
   
   
   
   
   Satan's palace --- the gin palace. 
   
   
   
   
   Drunkenness turns a man out of himself, and leaves a beast in 
   his room. 
                                
   
   
   
   Wine has drowned more men than the sea. 
   
   
   
   
   The drunkard continually assaults his own life. 
   
   
   
   
   Cans of beer cost many a tear. 
   
   
   
   
   First the distiller, then the doctor, then the undertaker. 
   
   
   
   
   Grape-juice kills more than grape-shot. 
   
   
   
   
   Strong drink is the devil's way to man, and man's way to the 
   devil. 
   
   
   
   
   Ardent spirits are evil spirits. 
   
   
   
   
   Liquor talks mighty loud when it gets out of the jug. 
   
   
   
   
   There is a devil in every berry of the grape. 
   
   
   
   
   Keep far from the bar and the barrel. 
   
   
   
   
   A drinking dame --- a sight of shame! 
   
   
   
   
   When women consume gin, gin soon consumes them. 
   
   
   
   
   The tankard is the greatest thief. 
   
   
   
   
   The ale-jug is a great waster. 
   
   
   
   
   The home may soon be full of gear,
   If you learn to save the beer. 
   
   
   
   
   If Jack drinks the wages, Jill cannot save them. 
   
   
   
   
   A drunkard's mouth dries up his pocket. 
   
   
   
   
   Purses shrink while workmen drink. 
   
   
   
   
   The bottle and the glass make many cry "Alas!" 
   
   
   
   
   Bacchus well his sheep he knows!
   For he marks them on the nose. 
   
   
   
   
   He who considers all lets the wine-cup fall. 
   

              
   
   Drink no wine and you'll not drink too much. 
   
   
   
   
   If men would think they would give up drink. 
   
   
   
   
   Drink won't hurt you if you don't drink. 
   
   
   
   
   A drop of gin is a drop too much. 
   
   
   
   
   No gifts on earth pure water can excel; Nature's the brewer, 
   and she brews it well. 
   
   
   
   
   Water is a strong drink --- Sampson drank it. 
   
   
   
   
   Men are strong and hale without strong ale.
