Engrav'd on a Medal of the French King's.

Second to Jove alone, in whom unite
Unbounded Virtue with unbounded Might;
Whether to succour Innocents opprest,
Or quell those Monsters which the World infest.
In vain the Titans against Heaven combine,
In vain th'embattl'd Squadrons pass the Rhine,
Theirs is the Eagle, but the Thunder's thine.
