N••ne voce, & prece debita,
Nunc gratis animis & studio pio;
REGI propitium DEVM
Placate, incolumis qui redit Angliae
Aterrâ in patriam vltimâ:
Signetur niueâ haec fausta dies notâ.
Veris fit vice libera
Terra astricta hiemis frigore & imbribus
Annos mortua Scotia
Bis septem, ex reditu Principis inclyti
Vivit: quâ Patriae lyrâ
Patrem commemorem? Laude Britanniae
Qua Regem recinam? Decus
Terrarum, Boreae carmine gloriam
Quo dicam? Attilium fide,
Cultu Pompilium; Pallade Pallada
Vincit: JUSTITIAM suâ,
VIRTUTEM propriis vincit & artibus.
Orbis quî mediter facem
Coelis inserere & consilio Jovae?
Quis Martem meritò efferet
Loricâ, aut tunicâ indutum adamantinâ?
Quis mirabitur vnicum
Trojae Merionem pulvere squalidum?
Ipsis numinibus parem
IACOBUM superis quis satis efferet?
Regis quis celebres labor
Virtutes referet, curaque Scotiae,
Aut quae cura Britanniae,
Plenis muneribus vel titulis satis
AEternet? tua Scotia
Sentit quid valeas maxime Principum
Quos Phoebi orbita circuit.
Sentire, ast alii exponere non licet.
Est per te domitum nefas:
Te solo incolumi luxuriat pecus
Per campum viridem, procul
Damno: Rura Ceres, Rura{que} faustitas
Nutrit: pervolat aequora
Mercator: lituus, bellaque matribus
Detestata silent: diu
Intersis populo, O vita Britanniae,
Faxit veriloquus DEVS,
Et serus penetres aurea sidera.
