Their practice conduct in an orthodox way,
And grant no relief to the souls who can’t pay.
Well—in this great and world-renowned City of Rome,
Within the broad shadow that’s cast by the dome
Of St. Peter’s aforesaid, is the Strada del Popolo,
In which stands the house of the famed St. Jacopolo;
And there reside thirty or forty stout monks, to see
Whom, much reminds one of Smithfield obesity.
All day long
Goes ding-dong
