It is the King by whom a Realme's renowne,

Is either builded up, or overthrowne.

By Solomon, more fam'd was Iudah made,

Then, by the Multitude of men it had:

Great Alexander, glorified Greece,

Throughout the World, which, else had bene a piece

Perhaps obscure; And, Cæsar added more

To Rome, then all her greatnesse did before.

Grant, Lord, these Iles, for ever may be blessed,

With what, in this our Emblem is expressed.
