1. With eloquence in every line portrayed
Are thoughts sublime or grace in what is said?

2. A stream of words like favors granted us
Or pearls around the neck in order spread?

3. May God protect you in the sea profound
Where genius fashions verse like one who’s led.

4. A breast that harbors words and lets them dwell
Till ears absorb them and hearts keep them fed.

5. How fine the lines that meet my ears; how choice
The counterparts that please like meadows fresh.

6. With gems he builds for me a house of words
When others build with stone that's rough and crude.

7. The masters of our art pursue with him
Ideas and terms; they walk in light renewed.
