In honorem RICHARDI ELTONIS.
SI vir sit quisquam militaris, doctus, & acer,Hic ELTON certo carmina cerne mea.Qui res conjungit varias, concordia libri,Ut justo belli fulmine Turca fleat.Respice RICHARDI Xisti certamina belliELTONIS; studio te colit, ornat, amat.Munera fac igitur capias haec fronte remissaCarmina, quin meritis inferiora tuis.
Johannes Hinde Captain.
