Then shepherds took the badge of royalty,
And the stout labourer the sword did wield:
The Consuls' power was annually revealed,
Till six month terms won greater majesty,
Which, made perpetual, accrued such power
That the Imperial Eagle seized the hour:
But Heaven,
opposing
such aggrandisement,
Handed that power to Peter's successor,
Who, called a shepherd, fated to reign there,
Shows that all returns to its commencement.

Enchased and lettered as a tomb,
And scored with prints of perished hands,
