1. O Ye Roundheads and Whiggs, for ever be silent, Cease to scandalize Tory, and honest Tantivy; Ile tell you strange News that happened nigh Lent, Which if you disprove, I swear Ile forgive ye: Of Protestant Francis, That tells us Romances, Of horrible Plots more strange then Miles Prances; For Frank twelve Geneva good Bibles did proffer, To lie with his Maid, but she slighted his offer. 2. This Protestant News-monger, and Munster Imp, Endeavourd to Switchel her upon the Sabbath, And made his Bibles his leacherous Pimp; But some think that they together near lay both: For the Maid was as Chast As Lucretia, at least, But had he been Tarquin, there had been the Jest; For Frank twelve Geneva good Bibles did proffer, To lie with his Maid, but she slighted his offer. 3. Then he offerd one Bible if he might but Grope her, But the resolute Quean still stoutly denyd him; Quoth she, Master Frank you a Leacherous Fop are, And after that manner severely did chide him: Youre the Brethrens Teacher, An Anabaptist Preacher: [R]eplyd he then to her, You a Papist and Bitch are; For Frank twelve Geneva good Bibles did proffer, To lie with his Maid, but she slighted his offer.
4. He writes twice a week News Domestick & Forrain, As Seditious as Care, Ben. Harris, or Curtis; Great Lyes in abundance from France & from Lorrain But never says word of his Maid: what a Cur tis? He tells us strange Stories, Of Papists and Tories; But this Ile say for him, that his Maid no Whore is: For Frank twelve Geneva good Bibles did proffer, To lie with his Maid, but she slighted his offer. 5. Then Frank be not angry cause she would not comply, For Saints in this world have misfortunes & crosses: Suppose that she had the best Thing you could try, You could have but tickled it with your Probosses; After that you woud curse, You were not starvd at Nurse, Because you would then be twelve Bibles the worse: For Frank twelve Geneva good Bibles did proffer, To lie with his Maid, but she slighted his offer. 6. From this Godly deed, St. Francis, youre calld, Because you endeavourd to save your Maids Soul, Though Satan your Pious intentions forstalld, And the Scriptures could not prevail on the Fool: Though she woud not grant, Yet deny it we cant, But that you deservd to be called a Saint; For Frank twelve Geneva good Bibles did proffer, To lie with his Maid, but she slighted his offer.
