Injurioso non gladio domat Extraneos, sed dirigit aureo Sceptro suos, qui regna justa Et stabilita dabit nepoti.

Dum Regis omnes gnaviter indolem, Statumque regni, dissidiis procul Cernunt remotis: ecce Regem Nunc Solomona vident Britannis
Praeesse: votum par animo fuit, Eventus idem. Namque animus tibi, Rerumque prudens, & secundis Temporibus dubiisque rectus.

Regesrelictâ non malè patriâ Nnncregna vestrainvisere gestiunt. Regesque legant jam orbe toto, Vt sapiant, videantque mira.
Diuisa longo tempore nunc vident. Non Marte forti, sed Sapientiâ Vnita sceptra: nunc beatas Viuere & imperio sub uno
Gentes feroces. O ter & amplius Certe beati, quos regit ardua Mens regis, orbem qui patentem In placidâ regeret quiete!
Tu praeter omnes SCOTIA maximè Felix voceris: Te piè & vnicè Vt patriam ambit, qui est tuarum Grande decus, columenque rerum.
Rex ergo fausto consilio redis: Votis diu nunc icta fidelibus, Ducem{que} custodem{que} quaerit Patria nocte dieque Regem.
Regnante nostro Caesare, non furor Civilis, aut vis eximet otium Externa, quae procudit enses, Et miseras inimicat urbes.
Affulserit vultus populo vt tuus, Ibit dies & gratior, instar & Veris virescent cuncta; campis Et gelidae fugient pruinae.
Praesentiâ Tu namque Diespiter Ceu Phoebus ardens AEthere lucido, Claré relucebis, dabisque Perpetuam sine nocte lucem.
