BY EDWARD JONES,

BARD TO THE PRINCE.

Let us now pralfe famous men.

The Lord hath wrought great glory by them, through his great power from the beginning.

Such as did bear rule in their kingdoms, men renowned for their power, giving counsel by their
understanding, and declaring prophecies:

Leaders of the people by their counnels, and by their knowledge of learning meet for the people, wife, and eloquent in their instructions.

Such as found out Muſical Tunes, and recited Verſes in writing.

All these were honoured in their generations, and were the glory of their times.

ECCLESIASTICUS, Chap. xlv. ver. 1, &c.
