第 1 句因包含“止酒”，据此推断可能引用了典故：止酒
波斯短歌行译笺 其三十 当代 · 钟锦
七言绝句 押灰韵
止酒徒增百岁哀，且将大惑付馀杯。
人间死去生来事，莫用玄言作漫猜。
注：○止酒：戒酒也。陶潜 《止酒》诗：“平生不止酒，止酒情无喜。”百岁哀：《古诗十九首》其十五：“生年不满百，常怀千岁忧。”○大惑：极疑惑不解事。《韩非子·扬权》：“凡治之极，下不能得。周合刑名，民乃守职，去此更求，是谓大惑。”○玄言：魏晋玄学之谈言。《晋书·简文帝纪》：“及长，清虚寡欲，尤善玄言。”此用为无征实之言。○魏新河兄译云：“斫轮妙理固难宣，昔我曾经误几番。来去从今都不问，好凭杯酒到忘言。”
What, without asking, hither hurried Whence?
And, without asking, Whither hurried hence!
Oh, many a Cup of this forbidden Wine
Must drown the memory of that insolence!
What, without asking, hither hurried Whence?
And, without asking, Whither hurried hence!
Oh, many a Cup of this forbidden Wine
Must drown the memory of that insolence!
