21 John Barleycorn
Джон ячменное Зерно (олицетворение виски, пива и др. спиртных и солодовых напитков) [выражение, известное с первой половины XVII в., приобрело особую популярность благодаря балладе Р. Бёрнса; см. цитату]John Barleycorn was a hero bold. Of noble enterprise; For if you do but taste his blood, 't will make your courage rise... Then let us toast John Barleycorn, Each man a glass in hand; And may his great posterity Ne'er fail in old Scotland. (R. Burns, ‘John Barleycorn’) — Недаром был покойный Джон При жизни молодец - Отвагу подымает он Со дна людских сердец... Так пусть же до конца времен Не высыхает дно В бочонке, где клокочет Джон Ячменное Зерно! (перевод С. Маршака)
It seems old Suzan liked John Barleycorn. She'd souse herself to the ears every chance she got... John Barleycorn... It's the old-fashioned name for whisky. (J. London, ‘The Valley of the Moon’, part III, ch. II) — Похоже, что старая Сузан весьма уважала Джона Ячменное Зерно. Она готова была нагрузиться при всяком удобном случае... Джон Ячменное Зерно... Это ведь старое название виски.
Jamie: "...By the time I hit Mamie's dump I felt very sad about myself and all the other poor bums in the world. Ready for a weep on any old womanly bosom... You know how you get when John Barleycorn turns on the soft music inside you." (E. O'Neill, ‘Long Day's Journey into Night’, act IV) — Джейми: "...Когда я добрался до заведения мамаши Верне, у меня уже сердце разрывалось от жалости к себе и ко всем несчастным забулдыгам на белом свете. Я вполне созрел, чтобы поплакать на груди у какой-нибудь старушки... Ты же знаешь, как это бывает, когда маэстро Джон Ячменное Зерно заводит внутри тебя нежную, грустную музыку."
