But, what needs Flatt'ry, where the Truth may teach

To praise, beyond immodest Flatt'ries reach?

Or, what needs he to feare a sland'rous-mouth,

Who seekes no meed, nor utters more than Truth?

Your Princely Vertues, what can better show,

Than Peace, and Plenty, which have thrived so,

Whilst You have raign'd that, yet, no people see,

A Richer, or more Peacefull time, than wee?

Your Civill Actions (to the publike eye)

Are faire examples of Moralitie,
