IF any one thinke meane of me,
'Tis cause they doe not my birth see,
I did descend from a great King,
And an Immortall God did spring.

I'me daughter to the King of Kings,
And must contemn base earthly things.
To heaven's great Prince, he married me,
And now my linage you may see.

And while I mean am in your eye,
I often to my glory flye,
And with my great Prince do abide,
Where placed by his blessed side.

With heavenly blisse methinks I'me crown'd,
His glorious beams do me surround,
Where I set and hear the story
Of my Prince, and see his glory.
