Gave us new life, and put our fears to flight:

For now we found, for all the peoples talk,

The Sp’rit was quiet, but the Thieves did walk.

This house these haunted which were worser Evils,

Than Fiends or Goblins, Damn’d-incarnate-Devils.

This Apparition plainly did discover,

That this same night the Maid lay with her Lover.

For the Stockings and the Doublet did disclose,

The match they made had thus mismatch’d their Cloths.
