Real-world Examples

But I own you may be right about the books, for there are many sorts of intemperance, and a library is as irresistible to me as a barroom to a toper.

Ma ti devo riconoscere che potresti avere ragione sui libri, perché ci sono molti tipi di intemperanza, e una biblioteca è irresistibile per me come una taverna per un ubriacone.
