31. [Vpone King James]
The old Records of annalized fame
Confirmes this wonder with the worlds assent,
That once that Ile which Delos height by name
In Neptun's bosome like a pillgryme went.
After, when greate Appollo was content
To grace it with the bliss of his birth day,
Then those inconstant Motions did relent
And it began to rest, to stand, and stay.

And it began to rest, to stand, and stay.
Delos, while I admire the, I must say,
In this our Albion may with the compare,
Before our Phebus birth we were a prey
To civill motions, tossed here and there,
But since his Birthstarr did oreshine our state,
Wee stand secure, redeem'd from all debate.
