In second Canto, truth comes out,
The wife with Clinchie has a bout;
She slaps his face with strangled hen,
And calls him thief, and worst of men:
Next to her Lord and Benefactor
She represents the wicked actor,
Who graciously attempts redress,
By sentence of the court of Sess.

In Canto third are many stories,
To entertain both whigs and tories;
Atchievements of infamous CLINCHIE,
Who daily plays the game of Pinchie.
You'll likewise in this Canto read
How CLINCHIE cheapens a sheep-head;
And sev'ral other puny wares,
Which may be call'd low life up stairs.

Our Canto fourth contains amours,
His partnerships with bawds and whores.
