 | Oculus Britanniae |  |
Here Guibbons late, with Æsculapian skill,
Preserv'd more lives, than modern empericks kill,
Friend to mankind; and to his healing art
Join'd candour and benevolence of heart,
On health and learning still vouchsafes to smile,
And shines the great Machaon of our isle.
Preserv'd more lives, than modern empericks kill,
Friend to mankind; and to his healing art
Join'd candour and benevolence of heart,
On health and learning still vouchsafes to smile,
And shines the great Machaon of our isle.
