Ben Jonson - The Devil Is an Ass Act 4 Scene 7 lyrics

Shackles, Keepers. A great noise is heard in Newgate, and the Keepers come out affrighted. O Me! Keep. 1. What's this? 2. A piece of Justice Hall Is broken down. 3. Fough! what a steam of Brimstone Is here? 4. The Prisoner's dead, came in but now! Sha. Ha? where? 4. Look here. Keep. 'Slid, I should know his countenance! It is Gill-cut-purse, was hang'd out this morning! Sha. 'Tis he! 2. The Devil sure has a hand in this! 3. What shall we do? Sha. Carry the news of it Unto the Sheriffs. 1. And to the Justices. 4. This strange! 3. And favours of the Devil, strongly! 2. I' ha' the Sulphur of Hell-coal i' my Nose. 1. Fough. Sha. Carry him in. 1. Away. 2. How rank it is!
