As touching the first I deny not, but that wine hath excellent properties. For it quencheth thirst,1 which might also be done with water, but not so commodiously: because wine in quenching of thirst, maketh a man strong, and engendereth §2spirits, whereby nature is very much recreated. Farther, it is medicinable for cold and weakness both of the stomach, and also of the other powers, which serve for the life of man. Wherefore Paul writeth unto Timothy to use wine for §3the stomach, and often diseases thereof. It is sometimes also not unprofitably occupied outwardly for wounds. Wherefore in the .x. of Luke it is written, that the Samaritan bound the wounds of him whom he found half dead, and poured §4wine and oil in them. Moreover wine maketh merry, and helpeth not a little to drive away sadness and heaviness of the mind. And therefore Solomon writeth in his Proverbs the .31. chap. Give strong drink to them which are heavy, & wine to them that have grief of hart. Let them drink and forget their poverty, and no more remember their sorrow. And we read in the .104. Psalm, wine rejoiceth the hart of man.
As touching the first I deny not, but that wine hath excellent properties. For it quencheth thirst,1 which might also be done with water, but not so commodiously: bicause wine in quenching of thirst, maketh a man strong, and engēdreth §2spirites, whereby nature is very much recreated. Farther, it is medicinable for colde and weakenes both of the stomake, and also of the other powers, whiche serue for the life of man. Wherfore Paul writeth vnto Timothe to vse wine for §3the stomacke, and often diseases thereof. It is sometimes also not vnprofitably occupied outwardly for woundes. Wherefore in the .x. of Luke it is writtē, that the Samaritane bound the woundes of him whom he found halfe dead, and poured §4wine and oyle in them. Moreouer wyne maketh mery, and helpeth not a lytle to driue away sadnes and heauynes of the minde. And therfore Salomon writeth in his Prouerbs the .31. chap. Geue strong drinke to them which ar heauy, & wyne to them that haue griefe of hart. Let them drinke and forget their pouerty, and no more remember their sorrow. And we rede in the .104. Psalme, wine reioyceth the hart of man.
