Vrbs tua quae ingressis dederit tibi munera primo,

The verses in Latine which the child vtte|red to y^e quéene in English. O regina parem non habitura, vide.

Ad diadema tuum, te spe quàm diuite mittat,

Quae duo laetitiae des tibi dona, vide.

Munus habes primum, linguas bona multa precantes,

Quae te quum laudant, tum pia vota so [...]ant,

Foelicémque diem hunc dicunt, tibi sacula longa

Optant, & quicquid deni longa potest.

Altera dona feres, vera, & tui amantia corda,

Quorum gens ludum iam reget vna tuum.

In quibus est infracta fides, falsum perosa,

Quae tuo audito nomine laeta salit.

Grata venis igitur, quantum cor concipit vllum,

Quantum lingua potest dicere, grata venis.

Cordibus infractis, linguis per omnia laetis

Grata venis: saluam te velit esse Deus.
