An archive-like prose fragment recounts a young man resisting vice, a recovering alcoholic’s nightmare, and social scorn faced by the intemperate. It juxtaposes a mother’s relief with a speaker’s cautionary tale on temperance, ending with evangelic exhortations and product placement for butter color and scent.
