"The soprano and tenor parts were published without text by Giovanni Maria Artusi in 1600, with the heading ''Quidnam ebrietas''. In 1938, Joseph S Levitan identified the text as an excerpt from one of Horace's Epistles, which takes the form of a dinner invitation to Torquatus, a lawyer. In the source, the tenor appears to end a seventh below the soprano. Implicit modulations allow the second half of the tenor part to be sung a degree lower than notated, thus ending on a consonance. Artusi's publication was the only known source of the piece until the 1950s, when Edward E Lowinsky discovered a partbook containing an alto part; this partbook, although texted, has errors in the text and the underlay does not appear entirely reliable. There is no extant source of the bass part."

Quid non ebrietas dissignat? Operta recludit, Spes iubet esse ratas, ad proelia trudit inertem, Solicitis animis onus eximit, addocet artes. Fecundi calices quem non fecere disertum? Contracta quem non in paupertate solutum?
