ODE JACOBI ALBANI GHIBBESII, MED. DOCT. AC IN ROMANA SAPIENTIA ELOQ. PROF. PRIMARII.

RES suas dicam sibi habere Phoebo,
Te modis aures retinente nostras:
Quale solamen Samius negârit
Doctor Olympo.

Quantus Alcides animos triumphas,
Gallico major! trahat ille vulgus:
Roma Te vidit stupefacta primos
Ducere patres;

Roma tormentum fidium insecuta
Dulce, concentus licèt ipsa mater.
Allobrox mirae Venetúsque plausit
Nuntius arti.

Vividum claro, celebrémque alumno
Laudo Simpsonum: vaga fama quantum
Thessali cultu juvenis magistrum
Distulit orbi.

Hactenùs plectrum, citharámque vates
Noverint; Arcu Violáque freti
Concinent posthac: nequè Thressa certet
Chorda Britannae.

O virûm felix, & opima rerum
Albion, sedes placitura Musis!
O poli sidus mihi, quò remotam
Dirigo puppim!

Monumentum, & pignus amoris.

à Musaeo nostro, Kal. April. 1661.
