Solomon, a child wise and poor Than a king old and foolish, who no more Will be admonished. Also it may be read In the same book of Solomon :I said, I will be wise ;but it was far from me. Vanity of vanities :all is vanity! Not idly nor without cause, but by rude Experience and most strange vicissitude Rebuked and chastened, did this king so write For mankinds edification and delight; As this true tale will tell those patient few Who have the will and wit to read it through. Within his cedar house of Lebanon, Beneath the Porch of Judgment, Solomon Upon his throne of ivory, gold-inlaid, In all his glory sat Two lions of jade, The gift of subject kings, on either hand Beside the golden footstool threatening stand. Below upon the steps, on each step two, A marvel and a terror to the view, Lay couched twelve others, lion against lion, Dread emblems of the pride and might of Zion. On the third finger of his right hand shone The magic ring of brass and gold, whereon The Name of the Most High inscribed between An emerald and a ruby might be seen.
