[ 10] Great Queen! thou wilt be happier yet,
If thou'lt thy Country's Rites forget:
[ 11] The King will prize thy Beauty more;
For he's that Lord thou must adore.
[ 12] Rich Tyre, and those of greatest port,
With presents shall thy favour court.
[ 13] Thy Mind all graces do's infold,
More splendid than thy cloth of Gold.
[ 14] She to the King in raiment wrought
With rich embroid'ry, shall be brought;
Her Maids of Honour after go,
Attending in the pompous show.
[ 15] Whom they with forward joy shall bring
Into the Palace of the King.
[ 16] Instead of Parents, from thy Womb,
Princes, to rule the Earth shall come.
[ 17] And this my Song; shall make thy Name
Survive, Great King, and spread thy Fame.
Thee future Ages shall adore
And praise, till time shall be no more.
