De Elgina, Carmen ARCTURI JONSTONI.

LAudibus Elgini cedunt Peneia Tempe Et Bajae veteres, Hesperidumque nemus. Hinc Maris, inde vides praedivitis aequora Campi. Frugibus haec populum, piscibus illa beant. Huc sua Phaeaces miserunt poma: Damasci Pruna nec hic desunt, vel Corasuntis opes. Attica mellifici liquistis tecta volucres; Et juvat hic pressis cogere mella favis. Aemulus argento foecundos Loxa per agros Errat & obliquis in mare serpit aquis. Arcibus Heroum nitidis urbs cingitur, intus Plebei radiant nobiliumque lares. Omnia delectant, Veteris sed rudera Templi Dum spectas, Lachrymis, Scotia, tinge genas.
