Arbor vittoriosa e trionfaleA
-
HE EXTOLS THE VIRTUE OF LAURAB

-
Tree victory's bright guerdon wont to crownC
Heroes and bards with thy triumphal leafD
How many days of mingled joy and griefD
Have I from thee through life's short passage knownE
Lady who reckless of the world's renownC
Reapest in virtue's field fair honour's sheafD
Nor fear'st Love's limed snares that subtle thiefD
While calm discretion on his wiles looks downC
The pride of birth with all that here we deemF
Most precious gems and gold's resplendent graceG
Abject alike in thy regard appearH
Nay even thine own unrivall'd beauties beamF
No charm to thee save as their circling blazeI
Clasps fitly that chaste soul which still thou hold'st most dearH

-
Blest laurel fadeless and triumphant treeJ
Of kings and poets thou the fondest prideK
How much of joy and sorrow's changing tideK
In my short breath hath been awaked by theeJ
Lady the will's sweet sovereign thou canst seeJ
No bliss but virtue where thou dost presideK
Love's chain his snare thou dost alike derideK
From man's deceit thy wisdom sets thee freeJ
Birth's native pride and treasure's precious storeL
Whose bright possession we so fondly hailA
To thee as burthens valueless appearH
Thy beauty's excellence none viewed beforeL
Thy soul had wearied but thou lov'st the veilA
That shrine of purity adorneth hereM
