A [
kw=mos] is an inebriating pipe[-tune], when wine has been open a long time, promoting luxury and making the symposium an unseemly spectacle, beguiling the diners with cymbals and [other] instruments.[1]
And elsewhere: "[...] who spent his leisure in love-affairs and revelries."[2]
"To the revelry comes a drunken man not rustic in voice."
Philostratus [sc. writes this].[3]
