~ Jedes Volk noch untersunk ~
 
So did those that did cultivate strong drink like the Roman Empire, but oh well! The relief stein probably made by Dümler & Breiden is marked only "558", ca. 1900.
 
Jedes Volk noch untersunk,
das nicht pflegte kräft'gen Trunk -
Every people (have) sunk under,
that didn't take pleasure in strong drink.
