Both Uses of
carouse
in
Faust -- Part 1 -- translated by Theil
- MERRYMAN
Youth, my good friend, you certainly require
When foes in battle round are pressing,
When a fair maid, her heart on fire,
Hangs on your neck with fond caressing,
When from afar, the victor's crown,
To reach the hard-won goal inciteth;
When from the whirling dance, to drown
Your sense, the night's carouse inviteth.†
- THE MONKEYS
Gone to carouse,
Out of the house,
Thro' the chimney and away!†*
