I WOULD LIKE TO FROLIC
With you I would like to frolic;
I might cure you of your colic.
I believe that fornication
is good cure for indigestion!

Author's Note
Inspired by the extra marital sex habits of 18th century English iron tycoon John Wilkinson who habitually made love to his mistress after heavy meals (by whom he had three bastards who caused a legal battle from his legitimate heir over his fortune after his death). He lived to his 80th year despite such a lifestyle. Painting by Lemuel Francis Abbott, courtesy wikipedia.

Not sure how religious he was - he possibly attended church for appearances sake like so many then and did become a churchwarden at one of his local churches (though this may have been before the mistress came into his life). He was such an iron enthusiast (he would make cannon to sell both sides in a war) that he was buried in an iron coffin and buried under an iron pyramid in a churchyard that would accept his body..
