And hast as many Naiades as they
Their Hyades have, who thy commands obey.
Thy Champions ar as pleasant and as green,
Thou seest as much, though not so much art seen;
And in thy safe retirement from the Shore,
Thy Fame's the less, but happiness the more.
In brief, thy Gardens, Orchards, and thy Fields
Yeild not to t'others Park, whilst Greenwich
yeilds
As much, or more (although a Royal Seat)▪
To thee for height, as thou to it for Great.
