Caesar’s5
brows,3Whose valor fills with wonder future story

Still to receive from Heaven, to us to give11

10To all succeeding ages still be seen
11A most
unparalled14
pattern of true love,12Begun on earth, ending in Heaven above.

meteors mixed,15But by the
primum mobile16
turned round:16Lasting as
Delia’s17
let their race18

20Descend on them, and all that do them love.
