There a verse above that's interesting. There's a rather irreverent song from Exmoor about John Wesley - tune 'The Seven Joys of Mary' or 'The Old Grey Duck', which includes the following verses:

John Wesley was a minister who lived in days of yore,
He often wore an old brown coat that buttoned up before.

John Wesley had another coat of quite a different kind;
Instead of buttoning up before, it buttoned up behind.
