ELIZA TRIVMPHANS . YE precious shelles that lie on Lybian shore , Or Nilus sable sandes in needelesse store , Or in the welthie deepes that westerne lye , The muddye mines of Indian treasurie . Where euer incofred in the lowly clay , ( There spitefull nature shrowdes your shining ray ) Yeelde vp the Pearles that in you buried bene , To decke the triumphes of the Mayden Queene . The six-square Berill with his fierie shine : The chast greene Smar agde , ruddie Sardian stone , The Sardonix with mixt-lesse colours drest , Calmy Androdamant that aye loueth rest , The costly Chrysolite of golden greene , The Jasper king of wholsome medicine . A chates black , and cleare could Christalline . Chaldean Sagda , coole Topazion , Some in her valted Diadem be set Enameling her costly coronet . Some binde the borders of her braunched gowne , In seemly ranks descending fairely downe , Or in her crisped lockes be looser laid , Or dubling oft her bared bosome shade . Giue place ye Persians with your Tissued traines , Which baser tymes accounted Souerayne Giue place ye proudest Queenes that were araied In curious needle workes of the Tyrian maid . Lo here the Art of Nature , pride of Art , Vnited bene , yet striue for greater part Nature the matter , Art doth claime the make , And both their glory from her grace do take . Descerning eye deale vnto each his due , And giue the verdict with an equall view . The Lyon is the Forrests King , The flore-dece the pride of spring The three in numbers leads the Ring The square doth make the surest thing Foure-quartars can diuide the best . The circle is the perfectest , The crosse once bore the holiest Well may the crowne become their crest Which all desine the worthiest . A shame on him that thinkes amisse , Or grudges at Elizaes blisse , Grow euer greene victorious Laurell tree , Whose branch she beares in such solemnitye And thou faire bow , bud out and spring anew , That might'st vnto the world her triumph shew . Meane while preferred by her gentle grace To the reuenging sworde or awfull Mace . Round globe the figure of her kingdomes right , Due vnto herby sires subduing might Betoken thou to her impiring hand , The Northren world , and neighbour western land From scattered Orkneis vnto Piren hils , The sea-diuided Earths her Empire fils . Vpon two Piles of Trophe-like ascent , Much like the spires of Egypts monuments , Sit there two Nimphes arayd in lighter weede To shew the wondering world her vertues meede . Th one with a bending Palme , and band of Bayes , The signes of many fortunate assayes , Victorie selfe shall Crowne her aged heade , While conquered Spayne shal be her captiue led . The other on her crowned Temples beares A girlond made of yellow wheaten Eares . Her left hand holdeth vp the Horne of store , Her right the wreath that earst Pomona wore , Peace in her Raigne , and plentie in her peace , And in her plentie pleasure , and sweet ease Wars in her Peace , and Conquests in her war , And fame of Conquest Crownes the Conquerer Thus doth Elyza Triumph on her day , Whiles her Nouembers sliden soft away . Slide on ye blessed Moneths to those forepast , And with the world winde vp your course at last . The Lion awe , the flower her fayre estate , Terneon perfect , square sure situate Four quarters equal rule Circle large gouernance The crosse her pietie , and sufferance .
