17.16

"Drinking wine leads to much heedlessness; / in the present life one is constantly foolish. / Forgetting all affairs, / one is constantly rebuked by the wise. / In future lives one is constantly dull and dim, / and loses many virtues. / Therefore, the clever and wise / abandon all the faults of drinking wine."
