Ye , brilliant and accomplished princes ,
Have conferred on me this happiness .
Your favours to me are without limit ,
And my descendants will preserve [the fruits of] them .
Be not mercenary nor extravagant in your States ,
And the king will honour you .
Thinking of this great service ,
He will enlarge the dignity of your successors .
What is most powerful is the being the man ;—
Its influence will be felt throughout your States .
What is most distinguished is being virtuous ;—
It will secure the imitation of all the princes .
Ah ! the former kings are not forgotten !
