EPICEDION
In obitum Domini HENRICI HASTINGS
Baronis, Illustrissimi.
SAnguineas Oculis lachrymas effundere possem,Infandum damnum si reparare queam.Sed frustra. Tantum lachrymis aequare doloremNon opis est nostrae. Tetrice siste dolor.Quomodo virtutes comprendam Epicedia scribensCarmine, quas nullus vel numerare potis?Doctrinae, ingenii lumen columenque sepultumHoc, nostro Zenith, Sole cadente jacet.
descriptionPage 61
Nonne vides Flores excindi tempore Verno?Dulcis sic cecidit Flosculus ingenii,Heros illustris, nulli Pietato secundus;Tantum annis juvenis, Cognitione senex.
Ingenuas Artes didicit Iuvenilibus annis;Virtutum centrum, Relligionis honos.Mystica cunctorum primordia novit ad unguem:Doctrinae eximiae calluit omne genus.Procedam ulterius? tantum est renovare DoloremInfandum. Iam nunc gurrula Musatace.Auree Flos Sophiae, requiesce secure Sepulchro;Nostrum, Te extincto, plangere munus erit.
