Catches, canons and drinking songs

to your rude health,

Item: Drink on, ’till night be spent and Sun do shine,...

by Mr. H. Purcell . For Three voices, in C major

Song: Drink on, ’till night be spent and Sun do shine,...

Drink on, drink on, drink on, till Night be spent, and Sun do shine, did not the Gods give anxious Mortals Wine, to wash all Care, to wash all Care and Trouble from the heart? why then so soon, why then so soon shou'd Jovial Fellows part? come let this Bumper, let this Bumper for the next make way, who's sure to live, who's sure to live, and drink another day.
