¶ An Epitaph on the death of Queene Anne Bullayne.
YF wayling woes might win thy life, to lodge in corpes agayne:Thy bodie should O noble Queene, not thus in graue remayne.
For if that death might life redeeme, and life were bought with death:Ten thousande to restore your lyfe, woulde render vytall breath.
But sith that may in no wise bee, for death woulde worke his spight:With yernefull voyce and dolefull domps we shall expell delight.
And shew our greefes with secret sighes, and langour of the breste:The flodds of teares shed for thy sake, declares our harts vnrest.
And were it not thy royall Impe did mittigate our payne:The sorrow for thy fatall day, wee vneth could sustayne.
descriptionPage [unnumbered]
Yet this somewhat recomfortes vs for that we be moste sureThy blessed soule is lodge with God Foreuer to endure.
Also thy noble splendent fame O noble Prince Queene AnneShall liue on earth till worldes ende within the mouth of man.
And eke thy lyfe shalbe a lore for Ladies all to learne:Wherin they may, as in a glasse Dame Vertues path desearne.
