ILle Ego, qui (dubiis quondam jactatus in Undis)
Qui (dum nunc Aulae, nunc mihi Castra strepunt)
Leni importunas mulcebam Carmine Curas,
In quo PASTORIS flamma FIDELIS erat.

At nunc & Castris, Aulisque ejectus & Undis,
(Nam mihi Naufragium Portus, & Ira Quies)
Altiùs insurgens, REGUM haud intactus AMORES,
Et REGINARUM fervidus ARMA Cano:

Quae (vinc 'is HYMENAEE tuis, spretis{que} CORONIS)
Nec Iuga ferre virum, nec dare Iura veliat.
Dulce procellosos audire ex Litore stactus!
E{que} truci Terram dulce videre Mari.
