PALACE RHYMES
THE SEVEN MORTAL SINS.
SIN OF GLUTTONY. (Fragment)
"We read that Noé went once to work
On his vineyard and had the desire to taste the wine
After drinking a lot, he got naked,
Showing his private parts, which he could not remember."
NOE
As we read, Noe, after a day of work at the vineyard, drank so much wine he
took off his clothes. Naked and shamefaced, reconditely overconfident as wine
bottles' sediment settled undisturbed at length, he recalled not his conduct.
Doomed as a man who thickened his lee, could he've peed?

NO MÁS
Como leemos, Noé, después de un día de trabajo en el viñedo, bebió tanto vino
que acabó por desvestirse. Desnudo y con cara de avergonzado, recónditamente
demasiado seguro de sí mismo mientras que el sedimento de las botellas de vino
se posaba tranquilo durante este tiempo, no recordaba su conducta. Maldito como
un hombre que espesó su lía a sotavento, ¿podría haber orinado?
