And her foes he advanc'd to
 * the post which they merit. Sir

Then shall the golden days we now possess, Far surpass the boasted days of good Q Bess

And as the name of Brunswick
 * claims duty, love and awe, Sir,

Far beyond a Plantagenet,
 * a Tudor or Nassau, sir,

Let the sceptre be sway'd by
 * the son or the fire. sir,

May their race rule this land
 * till the globe is on fire, sir,

And may their future days, in glory & success, Far surpass the golden days we now possess.
