Gallia Lugdunum miratur, at Itala tellus
Rem Venetam, Hispanos, operosa Sevillia iactat,
Londinum Tamesis, speciosa Antverpia Scaldem.
Ast ego Teuthonicas inter caput altius Vrbes
Effero Francfvrtum, qua Pons tua Moene fluenta
Saxeus, Urbis opus, quindeno fornice sternit
Saxonibus Francos clarißima nomina jungens
Sola ego Cæsaribus quondam delecta creandis
Glorior, et celebris mercatu duplices nomen
Vsque ad Hamaxobios peregrina merce propago.
Est foecundus ager, populus cum divite censu,
Cæsaribus seruata fides, prudensque Senatus.
Hæc mihi si constent, quis me neget efie beatam?
Sis, voveo, / I L Gotofredus.
