From A Chain of Golden Poems (1658)

Where will you do your self so great a right
To let your English Martial view the light?
You will oblige this Nation by your pains,
Those 'specially to whom the Latin's strange.
And he (in the Elysian shades) will smile
To heare he speakes the language of this Isle.
