And pray what did the Devil do?
Oh! he was expert at the art;
At first just to keep his hand in play,
In a “Horrible Murder” took part.
But the Devil he very soon finish’d the job,
And came to a regular stand;
When, for the want of some better employment
In a “Robbery” he had a hand.
He set up a joke by W——l;
But, thinking it couldn’t be meant,
