Alc. 42 V is a mythological variant of the sympotic motif of carpe diem. By creating a setting of perfect bliss only to shatter it soon afterwards, Alcaeus uses the authority of the mythological exemplum to underline the transience of human happiness and encourage the enjoyment of the sympotic moment
