Goliardic Poetry, In taberna • When we are in the tavern, we do not think about mortality, but get right down to gambling, which always raises a sweat. What goes on in the tavern, where a penny gets you a drink, if that is what you want to know, then listen to what I tell you. • The mistress drinks, the master drinks, the soldier and the cleric drink, he drinks, she drinks, the servant and the handmaiden drink, the white man and the black man drink, the steady and the capricious drink, the illiterate and the professor drink.
