The Stablers Honours.
✗
I. H. S.
Where went the virgin mother of our God,
When nine months pregnant with the heav'nly load?
To stabler's house, the divine dame took flight,
His house held more than half of heaven that night.
A stable serv'd him for imperial rooms,
Whilst dazzling crowds of angels were his grooms.
The stabler's fame did quickly fly abroad,
Since in his manger lay a cradl'd God.
Hither did kings and clergymen resort,
To see the humble grandeur of the court.

Whilst dazzling crowds of angels were his grooms.
The stabler's fame did quickly fly abroad,
Since in his manger lay a cradl'd God.

To see the humble grandeur of the court.
Can herald's office greater honour shew,
Than what the King of kings bestow'd on you.
Than what the King of kings bestow'd on you.
