"Then came October full of merry glee:
For, yet his noule was totty of the must,
Which he was treading in the wine-fats see,
And of the joyous oil, whose gentle gust
Made him so frollick and so full of lust."

- Edmund Spenser (1552-1599), "Mutabilitie", canto VII, verse 39, lines 1-5
(The Mutabilitie Cantos are book 7 of Spenser's masterpiece, "The Faerie Queene.")

Notes:
"noule was totty of the must" - head was dizzy from the new wine
"wine-fats see" - sea of the wine vats
