Of the Bankers and Banks of our nation;

I’ll relate how they fall, how they stand,

Their origin from the creation;

This Banking’s no new-fashion’d trade,

For Eve, that libidinous madam,

The moment she ceas’d to be maid,

Kept a running account with old Adam.

So the first of all Bankers and Banks,

In the garden of Eden began,

When Belzebub play’d his lewd pranks,
