DE NECESSITATE PERSEVERANIIAE
aVE DROSALUTE ESF, NEMLNEM LA5SES LABBK
Gentem maritimam Vahalis et Mosae accolam
(Avondam fuisse rara quam turris probat
Extans ab undis, quando depressae jarent)
Aggeribus amplis scaepe luctatam ferunt
Contra furorem fluminum, venti, maris.
Qvam crebra civi, crebra nox est ructiio
Vigilata, ne foramen aperirent aquae,
Lateque laetos verteret strages agros
Quam multa lapidum, ligni et argilla strues
Advecta venit viribus magnis equum.
Tumulanda in undis l nec locus sumtu vacat.
Tristis colonus sustineri longius
Impensa fructu posse redituro negat:
Partes iniquas alius injungi dolet,
Commune studio nec pari pelli malum.
Resonant querelae, vixque praeclarus Comes
Rectoragentis precibus et rationibus
Sustentat animos, dum salutis admonet,
Nec ipse noctu vel diu parcit sibi.
Tandem labore fractus et cura gravi
Victor perictis tunc triumphatis jacet.
