30 Para los que se detienen mucho en el vino, para los que van buscando la mistura.

31 No mires al vino cuando rojea, cuando resplandece su color en el vaso: éntrase suavemente;

32 [Mas] al fin como serpiente morderá, y como basilisco dará dolor:

33 Tus ojos mirarán las extrañas, y tu corazón hablará perversidades.

34 Y serás como el que yace en medio de la mar, ó como el que está en la punta de un mastelero.
