On wine -- It sloweth age, it strengtheneth youth, it
helpeth digestion, it abandoneth melanchole, it relisheth the heart, it lighteneth the
mind, it quickeneth the spirits, it keepeth and preserveth the head from whirling, the
eyes from dazzling, the tongue from lisping, the mouth from snaffling, the teeth from
chattering and the throat from rattling; it keepeth
the stomach from wambling, the heart from swelling, the hands from shivering, the sinews
from shrinking, the veins from crumbling, the bones from aching, and the marrow from
soaking.
-- Anonymous 13th century manuscript.

Canada, together with their prices. Note that after a
brief experiment with tax-out prices for wines sold
in their stores, the Nova Scotia Liquor Corporation
has gone back to tax-in pricing. What what you see is
what you pay at NSLC.
