“Nate has got a squeezebox no one ever sleeps at night!”

No. “Savage breast.”

Huh? What does an accordion have to do with soothing music?

The enchanting accordion

Actually it’s

Musick has Charms to sooth a savage Breast!

By William Congreve.

“Breast”, not “beast”. https://www.mentalhelp.net/blogs/music-hath-charms-to-soothe-the-savage-breast

After dinner, come back & join in the chorus!!!

Good one… b ut, apparently, not the original quote. "“Music has charms to soothe a savage breast.” That famous line was uttered by a character in William Congreve’s 1697 play “The Mourning Bride.”

Good morning Crew.

ok, yes this is a comic. But the actual quote is “breast”.

I thought the breast v beast issue was part of the joke.

I’m surprised nobody mentioned that it was “breast” and not “beast” /S

And a-one! And a-two!

Good Evening, Crew.
