has
recently
found
the
text
of
a
temperance
lec-
ture
delivered
by
an
Alexandrian
professor
named
Amenemann
to
Petaur,
a
student.
'
I
have
heard,'
said
the
professor,
'
that
you
neglect
your
studies
to
go
from
beer-room
to
beer-
room.
Now
I
tell
you
whoever
drinks
beer
is
dis-
gusting.
The
odour
of
beer
drives
people
away
from
you and
callouses
your
soul.
You
delight,
then,
to
run
against
a
wall
and
to
break
in
a
door.
Your
reputation
is
notorious
—
it
is
written
on
your
face.
Do
not
think
of
the
cup
any
longer.
Forget
the
mug
and
the
accursed
hag
;
as
it
is,
you
drum
on your
stomach
daily,
you
stumble,
you
fall
upon
your
stomach.'
In
Strabo's
time
beer
was
called
barley
wine
and
was
drunk
generally
in
Alexandria.
The
pre-
paration
of
barley
beer
to
take
the
place
of
wine
was
supposed
to
have
been
taught
by
Osiris.
Several
recent
German
writers
have
a
theory
that
beer
brewing
was
introduced
into
Europe
from
Egypt.
