[Farewell Flaminius, so smoothly sweep]

Farewell Flaminius, so smoothly sweep
The glassy face of the becalmed deep,
Devide the streames, let thy guilt brag out brave
The prouder billowes, cleave each yeilding wave,
Out-strip the tide, and with your painted oares
Stout Saylors, glide along the moving shores.
Kind Neptune claime the winds, let not them jarre
Commencing with the bubling tide, a warre.
