Who to the yielding maid had vow’d his truth;

And finds in that fair deed a sacred joy,

That will not perish, and that cannot cloy; -

A living joy, that shall its spirits keep,

When every beauty fades, and all the passions sleep.

Qui Stygia tristem, non tristis, videt,

. . . . . . . . . . . .

Par ille Regi, par Superis erit.
