In midst of civil fury still ye same.

When the grave world run madly uniform,

Serene within thou weather’d out ye storm.

The miter thou refused with a brow

Wch calmness shew’d, and resolution too.

Esteemed by ye good, by ill men fear’d,

By ye wise admired, and followed by ye herd.

Ev’n Satan did trembling on thy lectures wait,

When thou display’d his mysteries of state.

Begg’d leave to plague thee, but he begg’d in vain,
