LAnguida viuifico Phoebi spoliata nitore
Emoritur Clytie, luctum testata ruente
In terram capitis nodo, dum pulchra resurgat
Tithoni croceum linquens Aurora cubile,
Tum sinuata hilari distendit brachia vultu
Et tota optati solis complexibus haeret.
Scotia non aliter placidi, Rex Maxime, vultus
Aspectu viduata tui moerore per annos
Ter quinos confecta iacet, semperque iaceret
Obruta, ni nitidos oculos faciemque serenam
Cernere fas tandem foret, vt surgentia solis
Nostōdia In serenissimi, potentissimi, et inuictissimi monarchae, Iacobi Magnæ Britanniæ, Franciæ & Hiberniæ Regis, fidei defensoris, &c. felicem in Scotiam reditum, Academiæ Edinburgiensis congratulatio.

Lumina queis fessos artus moribundaque membra
Nostra foues, tristique tuos à morte reducis.
Salue igitur multum, Regum Rex Maxime, saluus
Ingredere optatam Patriam, saluusque reuise
Quae loca grata tibi, felix terraque, marique,
Aeternumque tuos & te diadema coronet.
QUanta animae humano virtus in corpore, tanta
Principis in regno cernitur esse suo:
Illa velut praesens corpus vegetatque fouetque:
Illâ abeunte, putres hoc abit in cineres.
Sic vbi festa micat Regis praesentia regno,
Omnia viuifico foeta calore vigent:
Illa vbi concessit fatis abrepta sinistris
Omnia tabifico mersa dolore labant:
Quod tu sollicitâ tecum dum mente reuoluis,
Ecce tuum pectus regia cura subit;
Languentem vt patriam, tristique in morte natantem
Lethiferis praesens fluctibus eripias.
Hoc studio superas fastidia longa viarum:
Hoc studio sumptus exuperasque graues;
Vnica dum patriae tete anxia cura remordet,
Quam properas radiis lenè fouere tuis.
Ecce igitur patriis Rex optatissime Scotis
Imber vt aestiuo sidere gratus ades.
Quique salutifero reuocasti lumine vitam
Non minùs ac dulcis vita cupitus ades.
Iac. Scotus.
