Metaphor
Wine may "into Riches" stamp and coin the Heart
Metaphor in Context
Who ever did of Poverty complain,
When gen'rous Burgundy had fir'd his Brain?
It gilds the Thought with Chymick Art,
And into Riches stamps, and coins the Heart;
The Language down like Tagus Flood is roll'd,
And glitters with imaginary Gold.

It gilds the Thought with Chymick Art,
And into Riches stamps, and coins the Heart;
The Language down like Tagus Flood is roll'd,
And glitters with imaginary Gold.
