To dicing lords a cully favourite,

He prostitutes whole cargoes in a night.

Then to the top of his ambition come,

Fills all his sayls for hopeful Absalom;

For his religion's as the reason calls,

God's in possession, in reversion Baal's;

He bears himself a dove to mortal race,

And though not man, he can look heaven i' th' face.

Never was compound of more different stuff,

A heart in lambskin, and a conscience buff.
