MOst honoured Sir, if a poore Schollar may (amongst the rest) his duteous offering pay, Accept my might unto your Merit, you That have given life to us, and learning to: How had the Churches glory laine in th' dust? A Sacrifice to the Phanatiques lust, The Virgin had been rifled, and our Lawes Become a Prey unto the Monstrous Jawes Of Wolves, and Vermin, had not you stept in Unto their rescue: nay the Citty bin A Shambles made; you have redeem'd our States, As though y'ad sat in councell with the Fates, And by your casting voyce diverted our Intended ruine; thus you shew'd your power, And love unto your Country; and so mixt, It carryes settlement our hopes are fixt. Ambition that did Gangrinate the State, Like a false Starr's, fall'n from its usurpt height: The spirit of division is now laid,
The Genius of three Nations in one made; You have re-hing'd our happynesse in these Most reverend Patriots, Branches of our peace: These Luminaries, that through envious Night, In th' absence of our Sun, affourd us Light; Whose Pious Care and Courage ever wakes, More for our safety, then for their owne sakes; That prize a publick more then private good, And swam not to a Government through blood; So cleare in all their wayes, that if they might, They will not take away anothers right; That if the Proverb hold, (although but plain) 'Tis, like, the Man may have his Mare again: To you, and them with reverence I Proclaime A hearty welcome in the Companies name, Th' expression of whose Joyes transported me Into these truths wrapt up in Poetry; Goe on brave Senators may your Union prove A Subject to the World of peace and love.
Spoken by Walter Yeokney The Reader may take notice that the other Speech is a forged cheat, and disowned by Walter Yeokney. LONDON: Printed for Henry Broome at the Gun in Ivy-lane, 1660.
