New-London, May 2, 1768.
THE PROSELYTE. A NEW BALLAD, ON A NEW OCCASION.
The vestry conven'd at a time most fitting,
To build up the church and to pull down the meeting;
Whate'er serv'd the cause they tho't ne'er could be evil,
For they hated dissenters far worse that the Devil.
Derry down, down, hey-derry down.
. . . [9 Verses with burden "Derry down, &c." after each]
