    Stirr'd up with envy and revenge, deceived
    The mother of mankind.

I call'd the devil, and he came,
And with wonder his form did I closely scan;

I call'd the devil, and he came,
And with wonder his form did I closely scan;
He is not ugly, and is not lame,
But really a handsome and charming man.

A diplomatist too, well skill'd in debate,
He talks quite glibly of church and state.

To yield possession to my holy prayers,
And to read more

I charge thee, Satan, housed within this man,
To yield possession to my holy prayers,
And to thy state of darkness hie thee straight.
I conjure thee by all the saints in heaven.
