Antè trisulca meam quàm flamma cremaverat Arcem, Anteferenda Mihi▪ Fabrica nulla fuit. On St. PAVL's Cathedral represented by Mr DAN. KING. Illustrious Pile, o that my Muse, Amphion-like, could Life infuse Into Thy Stones, & make them dance In Order, till They might advance Into their ancient Seats, and rise In Spires to resalute the Skies. What though the Worlds 7 Wonders have In their own Rubbish found a Grave; Consuming Time did scarce amiss So long as He dispensed with This: For whilst He PAUL'S upheld alone, The S●ar'n re-flourisht in This One. Hail, Sacred Ruins, which remain, And still a Majesty retain You in your mouldering Relics show GOD's special Presence once below: So as blessed Angels might admire The Model of Their Own Great Quire. Nor were it an Offence to call Those Angels to Thy hastening Fall, Who only can fit Poets be To grace Thee with an Elegy And to bewail a Silence there Where Voices turned each Sense to Eare. Religion's Ark, a Trophy raised By Zeal, where GOD was rightly praised Cheered by Thy former Splendour must We now be blinded with Thy Dust? Ah that Thy Lead should fall to be A Winding Sheet to Faith, and Thee! To view Thee once more in Repair, O Theatre of ROYAL Care! To re-exalt Thy glorious Name, And wash out our Augaean Shame, A Flood should issue from our Eyes Which might Alpheus equalise. Time that devours the World, & brings A Change on all inferior Things, May see an Age in greater Hast Rebuild Thee, than this laid Thee waste; And find a Holy Pleasure in, Such an Atonement for This Sin. However, let Us duly mourn To view Thee wasting to Thy Urn, And if Time should not Thee restore, Thou liv'st in Figure, as before, By ONE, Who joining Names, with Things, Shares in Renown with Other KINGS. Threnodia Adis PAULINA De Seípsâ.

Sed mihi Seditio nocuit, quae Prodroma Lapsûs, Saevior ac ipso Tempore, Livor atrox: Cum sint Arma Tibi tantùm Coelestia, PAUL, Militis Excubijs non eget Ista Domus: Antè Decora fui, jam Squallida tota recumbo; Est sacer Hinnitus quô Sacer Hymnus erat! Si Fluvio Stabulum javit Tyrinthius Heros, Victor Aquis, quandò Dextra negabat Opem; Excordes Nati, cur nunc in Funere Matris Conspicitis siccis Rudera nostra Genis? O, si versa forent in salsum Lumina Rivum, Elueret Sordes Rivus ut Iste meas! Involvo Lodice mei Sacra omnia Plumbi! Urna priús Magnis, jam rudis Urna Mihi! Laetor at aeratis quod sim victura Figuris, Ceu Volucris Syrijs quae reparata Rogis, Illius Auxilio, Qui non REX Nomine tantum, Sed Qui, par summis REGIBUS, edit Opus. Quantò Ego Flebilior, tantò Praesentior audi, Diruit, aedificat nam tua Dextra, DEUS!

The City of London (as some writ) had its first Rise from Brute the Grandchild of Aeneas, 70 years after the Destruction of Troy, whence (say they) it was called Troy nobant, or New-Troy, so called when Caesar entered into Britain, 54 years before the Birth of Christ. The name London derived (as some say) from Lud a British King, who enlarged it: Others from Lihan-dian, or Diana's Temple▪ because the chief Temple therein was dedicated to Diana▪ on whose Ruins St. Paul's was built by Ethelbert K. of Kent: It was walled 3 miles in compass Ao. Chri. 306 by Helen the Mother of Constantine. In the time of H. 3 d. it had six fair Gates. The Tower builded by W. the Conqueror Ano. 1078 At the Dissolution of Monasteries it had 17. Religious houses within the Walls, and 12 without. The number of Churches in the City of London with. in the Walls 99, in the Suburbs 31. Anno J658. This City hath Longitude 24°. 20′. Lat: 51°. 32′.
