ERgone Rex JACOBUS adest! humiles{que} penates
Musarum ingreditur, quem totus vix capit orbis
Ergone eum spectare licet, coram{que} tueri!
Ipse suo regno, qui regum est celsior unus?
Ergone fas notas audire, & reddere voces?
Auribus ac illi arrectis astare loquenti?
Qui postquam terris datus est, sapientia vera
Coepit privatûm sese decus esse negare.
Ergone delitiis nostris capietur & ille?
Quem capere haud potuit vis auri insana, Arabum{que}
Divitiae, sceptra & sceptris supperaddita avitis?

Desinite ôtandem vestrâ de sorte Camoenae
Scotigenae, querulas ad sidera tollere voces:
Sat sit, sat vobis illo quod Apolline pridem
Iamque frui licitum, cujus vidisse coruscos
Bis radios, mater Cantabrigia alma triumphat,
Oxonium vidisse semel laetatur ovatque.

JACOBUS WEDDERBURNUS, S. S. T. B.
