A Farevvel to His Royal Highness James Duke of York, on his Voyage to Scot∣land, October 20. 1680.
GO, Best in all that's good. We cannot bearThe Radiant Lustre of thy Virtues here:Owls hate the Sun, Dark Deeds abhor the Light,Ills appear worse still by their Opposite.Obey thy Heavenly in thy Earthly King,Confound thine Enemies by Suffering;O'recome by Good, Let Furious Factions see,Thine's Peace, when their Religion's Cruelty.Go Prince, Couragious Prince, Our Champion mayGreat Britains Guardian Angel lead thy way;May the cold Hemisphere Thou go'st to Grace,Receive new warmth and vigour from thy Face:May all that's Happy thy Companion be,Till Heaven bring Thee to Us, or Us to Thee.Go Prince, Great Britain's Genius with his Train,Guard thee to Scotland, Bring Thee safe again;That (like Great Constantine) Thy glorious days,May Crown thy Sufferings with Immortal Bays.And as His Zeal, the mis-led World did bring,To Love and Honour their Celestial King;So may thy Zeal move this misguided Nation,To follow Thee in Loyal Reputation,

In being Just, and Faithful to their King;And all with one accord aloud shall Sing,Long live Great Charles our Nations Joy,And all Men sing, Vive Le Roy.
