[Iewel of Natvre, Ioy of Albion]
Iewel of Natvre, Ioy of Albion,To whose perfection Heav'n and Earth conspire:
That in Times fulnes, Thou mayst bless this Throne
(Succeeding in the Vertues of thy Sire)
As happy thou hast begun, goe-on;
That, as thy Youth, we may thine Age admire;
Acting our Hopes (which shall revive our hearts)
Pattern and Patron both of Arms and Arts.
Iosuah Syluester.
