EPIGRAPH: Nam veluti pueris absinthia tetra medentes,
Cum dare conantur prius oras pocula circum
Contingunt mellis dulci flavoque liquore,
Ut puerum aetas improvida ludificetur
Labrorum tenus; interea perpotet amarum
Absinthy laticem deceptaque non capiatur,
Sed potius tali tacta recreata valescat.
