Poem by Thomas Urquhart
Epigrams. The First Booke. ¹ 1. To the King
Great Monarch, since the worlds nativity,
No mind, nor body had so divine parts
To grace the State of Sov’rain Majesty,
As hath your Royall person, whose deserts
Soare higher ’bove the reach of other Kings,
Then the bright Sun transcends terrestriall things.
