Had near availed to stop the blessed effects

Of the doctor's nostrum which, well seconded

By the sudary, and most by the costly smoke—

Not leaving out the strenuous prayers sent up

Hard by in the abbey—raised the prince to life:

To the great reputation of the seer

Who, confident, expected all along

The glad event—the doctor's recompense—

Much largess from his highness to the monks—

And the vast solace of his loving people,
