The Devil assum'd this Body, and when I began to mutter my Prayers, he was in such haste he left his Carcass behind him. Ha! it stirs; no, 'twas but my Fancy. [Scaram. lifts up all his Limbs, and lets 'em fall, whil'st Harl. hits him on the Breech, lifts his Head, which falls gently. All's dead but's Head. [ (Sets him upright.) The Devil, the Devil! Be gon; what art thou? (Harl: A poor unfortunate Devil.) The Devil; Avant then Hagon mogon strogon.
