I will tell you what Joseph of Arimathea
Said to my Fairy was not it very queer
Pliny & Trajan what are You here
Come listen to Joseph of Arimathea
Listen patient & when Joseph has done
Twill make a fool laugh & a Fairy Fun

What can be done with such desperate Fools
Who follow after the Heathen Schools
I was standing by when Jesus died
What I called Humility they called Pride
