«EXCESS, n. In morals, an indulgence that enforces by appropriate penalties the law of moderation.Hail, high Excess --especially in wine, To thee in worship do I bend the knee Who preach abstemiousness unto me -- My skull thy pulpit, as my paunch thy shrine.

Ungrateful he who afterward would falter To make new sacrifices at thine altar!»

You know That empires are ungrateful; are you certain Republics are less handy to get hurt in?»
