water mixed with vinegar
kills germs, kills taste, quenches thirst
water mixed with wine
kills germs, enhances taste, creates a thirst
water mixed with brewed hyssop
kills germs, quenches thirst, quiets the king
water mixed with dill
kills germs, enhances taste, calls butterflies
water mixed with vinegar
kills germs, kills taste, quenches thirst
water mixed with wine
kills germs, enhances taste, creates a thirst
water mixed with a new wine
kills germs, quenches thirst, blood of the king
water mixed with blood
kills sin, enhances hope, creates a thirst
Blesses all.

Ten drops of wine per gallon of water
will keep it fresh for three months. Vinegar is anti-bacterial and a natural degreaser.
Hyssop works like atropine. Dries the body out, and has deadening properties. -
They mixed hyssop with water in the sponge they put to Christ's lips.
For now.
House deal fell through.
But keeping on keeping on, cup is still half full.

The king? Are you referring to kings in general or is this a religious reference?
An original write. Yes, I think it is religious -- "kills sin"
