Et fremat immensum Satanas, Satane{que} satelles)
Exoptata diu jam lux affulsit ab alto,
Omine felici, Christo ducente, Penates,
Et Patriam antiquā prope post tria lustra revisis.
Crebra tuae quaerunt proceres en oscula dextrae,
Oscula devotae affectus testantiamentis.
Et geminat multam plebs vndique fusa salutem,
Pectora tantus amor natiui Principis urit
Visendi studio, sic ut non currere cunctos
Sed volitare putes, (plantis amor exhibet alas)
Sexus uterque, aetas omnis, volat ebvia Regi.
Nil tardare potest, ferit aurea sydera clamor
Gratantis populi: crescat precor illa voluntas,
Testeturque aliis studium gens integra signis:
Carmina pars dicat, pars ducat laeta choreas,
Munera munisico Regi pars larga propinet.
Salve igitur multùm, salve celeberrime Princeps,
Ecce tibi obsequium, & fortunas sponte vovemus.
Alexander Douglasius.
