This is certainly a very sexy song. The sexiest on the album, by far. Also one of my favorites.
Beyond the seducing of a priest or religious man, I see this as a condemnation of religion's attitude towards sexuality. The bit about his seven devils needing love is telling him to stop feeling ashamed of his lust, to embrace it. The bit about ecstasy is about sexuality being purer than any religion.
