I thought this was when Jesus turned the water into wine, and Thomas doubted that all the water was wine, and drank 8 pint glasses of wine, and later agreed that it definitely felt like a wine hangover.
I’m not sure what, if any, the symbolism of red hose in this period was. It was the most popular colour, as reflected in estate inventories. In a late Elizabethan painting, yellow hose would have meant he was on the make.

I hope he survived it in spite of likely medical treatments at the time!
