"Wine, God of pleasures, he reigns amidst banquets among crowns of flowers, enlivens joyful dances to the sound of the bagpipe, gives rise to mad laughter and dispels sorrows; his nectar, gladdening the table of the Gods, increases their happiness, and mortals drink in his cup sleep and oblivion of evils. (from the Chorus of the Bacchantes)"
