And in a green wood many a soul has built

A new Church, with a fir-tree for its spire,

Where Sin has prayed for peace, and wept for guilt,

Better than if an architect the plan drew;

We know of old how medicines were back'd,

But true Religion needs not to be quack'd

By an Un-merry Andrew!

Suppose a poor town-weary sallow elf

At Primrose-hill would renovate himself,

Or drink (and no great harm)
