Is the fashion with curates) the cassocks
Of the late worthy priest of St. John.
"If the sittings (not counting the free seats
Which are placed in the draught near the door),

For nine hundred pew-renters or more;
Then the district quite swarms with young ladies,
And the tenant who's recently gone,
From the slippers they worked him, quite paid his
Clerk, sexton, and choir of St. John.
