English text
A rough country priest paid his amorous vows
to the delicate Chloe, young Simkins' gay spouse,
Sly Sim found it out and cried, rubbing his head,
“I've a horn sprouting here,” “Pray, let's feel it,” she said,
“Excuse me for that,” he replied, “pretty dear,
you can judge on't without for you planted it there.”
