Hello. I want to use a quote a little text from Goethe's "Faust I" in english, but I simply can't find a translated version (and I don't want to spend money for an english version of a german book which I already own).

To be specific, I want to quote a phrase from the scene in Auerbach's cellar, where Mephistopheles lets wine flow out of a table. The quote is (contentwise) something like this:
"The vine bears grapes and the goat bears horns; the wine is juicy, wood is the vine, the wooden table can also give wine. A deep look into the nature! here is a wonder, believe me! now pull the plug and enjoy!"

Can anybody please tell me the exact and correct english translation?
