SUR-NAMES - ZaunköniG - 17.12.2012
James, having designated thoso who sat
On thrones, is not its isolated merit ;
Attractions lovelier it owns than that.
As if the soft, the undefined spirit
Which still its unnamed beauty does inherit
Sweetly preserves it, passing not away
With those who, favorM, do successive wear it
Like a fair jewel of the chastest ray ;-
Another claims regard, 'tis Edward — see
How gracefully he comes ! chivalrously !
As proudly conscious of acknowledged claim
To the resplendent Third — the Victor Prince,
The hallow'd Sixth, and all who brightly since
Reflected lustre on the regal name.
