Dilectissimae Conjugi sacrae Hettonae Franciscus Hettonus viduus Moe∣stus, non sine Lachrimis, posuit

OMea sacra oculis multo mihi Charior ipsis, Deseris (Heu) viduum cur ita sacra virum? Tu secura manes, portu requiescis Amoeno Non tibifraus, Moribus nec mala obesse valent. Tu pace Aeterna frueris, tu vivis ovasque, Quippe tibi est Terris, gratior Aula Dei, Conjux ipse tuus mance vivoque superfles, Moestificis plenus solicitudinibus, Spero tamen tempusque brevi, (mea sacra) futurum est Cum te visurus sim, vel in Arce poli. Cuncta tibi scio salva manent, vereque Beata es, Cui mors vita fuit, vitaque morte viret. Eheu quam nostrae est evanida gloria vitae, Certa dies nobis nulla, nec hora datur:

Page 804

Stare decet vigiles ergo, semper que paratos, Ne mors incautos nos inopina premat. Ecce rei testis, sacra hic Blomera, jugali Francisco Hettono Consociate Thoro. Annos octodecim, placuitque Marita Marito, Nulla magis potuit, nec placuisse magis. Filiolos illi peperit, ter quinque utriusque Pignora: & ex illis, octo fuere Mares. Quadraginta Hyemes, binos si dempseris annos Vixit, & octodecim, suasilis vxor erat.

Obijt 13. Iul. Anno Dom. 1600.
