    The soldiers also mocked him, coming up and offering him sour wine, and saying, “If you are the King of the Jews, save yourself!”

    Love, then unstinted, Love did sip,
    And cherries plucked fresh from the lip;
    On cheeks and roses free he fed;

    And lads indifferently did crop
    A flower and a maidenhead.
