THE SAINT turn'd SINNER ; Or , the Dissenting Parson's Text under the Quaker's Petticoats .
Tune of a Soldier and a Saylor . YOU Friends to Reformation , Give Ear to my Relation , For I shall now declare Sir , Before you are aware Sir , The matter very plain The matter very plain A Gospel Cushion thumper , Who dearly lov'd a Bumper , And something else beside Sir , If he is not bely'd Sir , This was a holy Guide Sir , For the Dissenting Train . And for to tell you truly , His Flesh was so unruly He cou'd not for his Life Sir , Pass by the Draper's Wife Sir , The Spirit was so faint . The Spirit was so faint . This jolly handsome Quaker , As he did overtake her , She made his Mouth to Water , And thought long to be at her , Such Sin is no great matter , Accounted by a Saint . ( Says he ) my pretty Creature , Your charming handsome Feature , Has set me all on Fire You know what I desire , There is no harm in Love . Quoth she , if that 's your Notion , To Preach up such Devotion , Such hopeful Guides as you Sir , Will half the World undo sir , A Halter is your due sir , If you such Tricks approve . The Parson still more eager , Than lustful Turk or Neger , Took up her lower Garment , And said there was no harm in 't , According to the Text , For Solomon more Wiser , Than any dull adviser , Had many Hundred Misses , And why shou'd such as this is , Make you so sadly vext . The frighted Female Quaker . Perceiv'd what he wou'd make her , Was forc'd to call the Watch in , And stop what he was hatching , To spoil the Light within , To spoil the Light within . They came to her Assistance , As she did make Resistance , Against the Priest and Devil , The Actors of all Evil , Who were so grand uncivil , To tempt a Saint to sin . The Parson then confounded , To see himself surrounded , With Mob and sturdy Watch-men , Whose Business 't is to catch Men , In leudness with a Punk , In leudness with a Punk . He made some faint Excuses , And all to hide Abuses , In taking up the Linen , Against the Saints Opinion , Within her soft Dominion , Alledging he was Drunk . But tho' he feigned reeling , They made him pay for feeling , And Lugg'd him to a Prison , To bring him to his Reason , Which he had lost before , Which he had lost before . And thus we see how Preachers That should be Gospel-Teachers , How they are strangely blinded , And are so fleshly minded , Like Carnal Men inclined , To lie with any Whore . FINIS .
