Bartholomew Dowling
Ho! stand to your glasses steady! 'Tis all we have left to prize. A cup to the dead already,-- Hurrah for the next that dies.
|
Ben Jonson
Drink to me only with thine eyes, And I will pledge with mine; Or leave a kiss but in the cup, And I'll not look for wine.
|
Ben Jonson
The thirst that from the soul doth rise, Doth ask a drink divine; But might I of Jove's nectar sup, I would not change for thine.
|
Ben Jonson
To the old, long life and treasure; To the young, all health and pleasure.
|
Benjamin Franklin
Here's to our beloved George Washington, the Joshua of America, who commanded the sun and the moon to sand still--and they obeyed.
|
Charles Dibdin
But the standing toast that pleased me most Was, "The wind that blows, the ship that goes, And the lass that loves a sailor!"
|
Dr. Plume
Some have meat but cannot eat; Some could eat but have no meat; We have meat and can all eat; Blest, therefore, be God for our meat.
|
Edward C. Pinkney
I fill this cup to one made up Of loveliness alone, A woman, of her gentle sex The seeming paragon; To whom the better elements And kindly stars have given A form so fair that, like the air, 'Tis less of earth than heaven.
|
Franklin Pierce Adams
Life, lift the full goblet--away with all sorrow-- The circle of friendship what freedom would sever? To-day is our own, and a fig for to-morrow-- Here's to the Fourth and our country forever.
|
Frederick Scheetz Jones
Here's to the town of New Haven, The home of the truth and the light, Where God speaks to Jones, In the very same tones, That he uses with Hadley and Dwight.
|
John Daly
Here's to the red of it, There's not a thread of it, No, not a shred of it, In all the spread of it, From foot to head, Not heroes bled for it, Faced steel and lead for it, Precious blood shed for it, Bathing in red.
|
John Dyer
And he that will this health deny, Down among the dead men let him lie.
|
John O'Keefe
A glass is good, and a lass is good, And a pipe to smoke in cold weather; The world is good and the people are good, And we're all good fellows together.
|
King Arthur
Waes-hael! for Lord and Dame! O! merry be their Dole; Drink-hael! in Jesu's name, And fill the tawny bowl.
|
Lord Alfred Tennyson
First pledge our Queen this solemn night, Then drink to England, every guest; That man's the best Cosmopolite Who knows his native country best.
