wicked polly

young people who delight in sin：
i’ll tell you what has lately been
a woman who was young and fair
died in sin and deep despair

she went to parties every day
in spite of all her friends could say
“i’ll turn to god when i get old;
he will then receive my soul”
on friday morning she took sick
her stubborn heart began to break
she called her mother to her bed
her eyes were rolling in her head:

“oh mother, mother, fare you well
your wicked polly’s doomed to h-ll
the tears are lost you shed for me
my soul is lost i plainly see”

“my earthly father, fare you well
your wicked polly’s doomed to h-ll
the flaming wrath begins to roll
i am a lost and ruined soul”

you count as i ignored all
my carnal appetites to fill
when i am gone, remember well:
your wicked polly growls in h-ll

she gnawed her tongue before she died
she rolled, she groaned, she screamed and cried
“oh, must i burn forever more
’til ten thousand years are o’er?”

it almost broke her mother’s heart
to see her child to h-ll depart
oh here’s my daughter gone to h-ll
my grief so gray no tongue can tell
she rung her hands, and groaned and cried
and nodded her tongue before she died
her nails turned black, her voice did fail
she died and left this lower vale

young people, let this be your case
or turn to god and trust his grace
down on your knees for mercy cry
let you in sin like polly died
