the bad taste even of lively curiosity, and in general the averseness of
every distinguished and self-sufficing

a dissatisfaction with its own condition, or an admiration of what is
strange: all this determines and disposes them unfavourably even towards

Louder they talk, and louder come the strains

Beautiful slaves, and Lamia's self, appear,

And every soul from human trammels freed,
No more so strange; for merry wine, sweet wine,
