Contains a fine portrait of an inebriated Bacchus. On the first edition of this hymn to Bacchus (publ. Leyden, 1615), see Oberlé, Fastes 1032: "(...) Heinsius semble avoir eu une tendresse particulière pour le dieu du vin car, déjà en 1610, il donnait une dissertation sur les Dionysiaques du grand poète grec de la décadence, Nonnos. Il est d'ailleurs probable qu'il ait tiré son hymne de Bacchus de cette collosale épopée."
