Today's word is "oenophile" ... EE-nun-fahyl ... a person who enjoys wines, usually as a connoisseur. (Dictionary.com)
Merry
While you travelled on the earth,
Your companions questioned,
How could you, of special birth,
Make this rude suggestion,
That tax collectors and oenophiles,
Understand you more than we do?
That those of most suspicious wiles,
Can be disciples true blue?
The chasm widens inbetween,
Your holiness and ours,
We are chastened now, we see,
By your compassionate power.
